EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the moment of determination and bravery as Fairey Battle bombers of 103 Squadron take to the skies over France during the early stages of World War Two. The year is 1940, and the Battle of France is in full swing. The Royal Air Force (RAF), the aerial warfare branch of the British military, is playing a crucial role in preventing the advance of the German forces. The Fairey Battle, a twin-engine, twin-boom monoplane, was the RAF's first monoplane ground-attack and medium bomber. It was designed to provide close support to ground troops and to attack enemy targets behind enemy lines. The aircraft in this photograph, adorned with the distinctive roundels and markings of 103 Squadron, are on a mission to deliver their payload to the enemy. The pilots of 103 Squadron, young and brave men, are focused on their task. The expression on their faces reveals a mixture of concentration, resolve, and perhaps a hint of apprehension. The aircraft, with their engines roaring, are silhouetted against the overcast sky, creating a stark contrast between the light and dark elements of the scene. The photograph is a poignant reminder of the sacrifices made by the men and women of the RAF during the Second World War. It serves as a testament to their courage, skill, and commitment to the cause of freedom. The Fairey Battle, though not the most successful aircraft of the war, played a vital role in the early days of the conflict, and this photograph captures a moment in history that will never be forgotten.
