EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the moment of departure for a perilous night bombing mission by the 69th Squadron of the Australian Flying Corps (AFC) during World War I. The scene unfolds at their base in Savy, northern France, on the night of 22 October 1917. The crew, consisting of a pilot and an observer, are preparing to take off in their RE8 biplane, a two-seater aeroplane used extensively by the British Royal Flying Corps and the AFC for reconnaissance and light bomber roles. The RE8, with its distinctive markings, is a testament to the technological advancements of the time, enabling the Allied forces to extend their reach into enemy territory under the cover of darkness. The crew's determined expression and focused demeanor convey the gravity of their mission and the risks involved in night bombing raids during the Great War. The hangar, dimly lit by the occasional flicker of lanterns, serves as a stark reminder of the harsh realities of the battlefield. This poignant image offers a glimpse into the courage and resilience of the aviators who took to the skies in the name of their country, making it an invaluable historical record.
