EDITORS COMMENTS
This striking image captures the intensity and impact of a pivotal moment during the early days of World War II. The photograph, taken by renowned photojournalist G.H. Davis, depicts a bomb hitting amidships of a German battleship during an RAF raid on the naval bases at Wilhelmshaven, Germany, in 1939. The British bombers, forming a powerful and precise formation, swoop down from the clouds, releasing their deadly payloads with precision. The resulting explosion and subsequent damage to the ship are evident in this powerful and historic photograph. The raid on Wilhelmshaven was a significant event in the early stages of the war, as it marked the first major attack by the Royal Air Force (RAF) on German naval bases. The operation, which took place on September 3, 1939, just days after the outbreak of war, aimed to disable the German navy's ability to challenge the British Royal Navy in the North Sea. The success of the raid, which damaged several ships and disrupted German naval operations, boosted morale in Britain and demonstrated the RAF's growing prowess in the air war. This photograph is a poignant reminder of the courage and determination of the airmen who carried out this daring raid, and the devastating consequences of the conflict that engulfed Europe in 1939. The image is a testament to the historical significance of the event and the role of the RAF in the Second World War.
