After searching for a bit, it seems finding high quality photos is easy. Determining their copyright status is hard.

All I did was look up google images of famous Luftwaffe aces. It's obvious I don't own these images. Do I have to worry about a copyright law or something? If so don't use them. Also, I'm more of a Order of Battle fan. Can one of the technicians make more German and American pilots and leaders for that game? I would even pay that person to do it for me.

Thanks

Hello, here is a photo of a Soviet soldier, this photo belongs to me and I allow it to be used in the game.

I apologize if I answer slowly, I don’t know English very well, I am from Russia and I also rarely use the forums.
