EDITORS COMMENTS
"This evocative group photograph captures the camaraderie and spirit of the 137 Squadron RAF during World War II. Taken in 1943, the image features a line-up of pilots and ground crew, proudly standing before their Westland Whirlwind fighter-bombers. The Whirlwind was a versatile aircraft, used for various roles including fighter-bomber, anti-shipping strike, and maritime patrol missions. With its distinctive propeller and robust design, it became a formidable weapon in the RAF's arsenal. Surrounding the pilots and ground crew are the essentials of wartime aviation - tools, spare parts, and the ever-present fuel drums. But what sets this photograph apart is the presence of the squadron mascot, a loyal and spirited dog, sitting amongst the men. Mascots were an integral part of RAF squadrons, providing morale and companionship to the personnel. They often accompanied the squadron on operations, offering a sense of comfort and familiarity in the midst of chaos. The 137 Squadron, based at RAF Manston in Kent, England, played a crucial role in the European theater of World War II. Their missions were often dangerous and demanding, and this photograph serves as a poignant reminder of the courage and dedication of the men and women who served in the RAF during this time. The 137 Squadron's legacy continues to inspire and remind us of the sacrifices made during the Second World War." Charles E Brown, the photographer, captured this moment in history, preserving it for future generations to appreciate the bravery and camaraderie of the 137 Squadron RAF during World War II.
