EDITORS COMMENTS
In this evocative photograph, taken at RAF Debden in 1938, we find three intrepid members of 87 Squadron, RAF: Pilot Officer R L Lorimer, Flying Officer G H J Feeny, and Sergeant Thomas Dewdney. The trio are proudly posing in front of their Gloster Gladiator, an iconic biplane fighter aircraft that was a mainstay of the RAF's fighter inventory during the interwar period and the early years of World War II. The Gladiator, with its distinctive red, white, and blue roundels and serial number clearly visible on its fuselage, sits majestically on the tarmac, its wings outstretched and ready for action. Lorimer, Feeny, and Dewdney, clad in their flying gear and leather helmets, exude a sense of determination and readiness, their eyes focused on the horizon as if already envisioning their next aerial maneuver. The year 1938 marked a critical period in the history of the RAF, as the threat of war loomed ever larger on the European continent. Aerobatics, or the art of flying high in the sky and performing daring stunts, were an essential part of RAF training during this time, helping pilots hone their skills and prepare for the challenges of combat. Lorimer, Feeny, and Dewdney, with their youthful energy and unwavering commitment to their duty, embody the spirit of the RAF during this era of uncertainty and anticipation. Charles E Brown, the photographer, expertly captures the essence of this moment, immortalizing the camaraderie and determination of these three young men as they stand before their trusted Gloster Gladiator, ready to take on whatever challenges the future may hold. This photograph is a poignant reminder of the courage and resilience of the RAF during the interwar period, a time when the world teetered on the brink of conflict and the skies above were a battleground like no other.
