EDITORS COMMENTS
A haunting reminder of the devastating impact of war, this print captures a pivotal moment during the heaviest air raid on Lorient, France. The image showcases a Short Stirling bomber plane silhouetted against a backdrop of raging incendiary fires on the ground. With unwavering determination, the aircraft embarks on its bombing run towards the German submarine base at Keroman. Taken on February 7th, 1943, this snapshot freezes time amidst a night raid carried out by an astounding fleet of 466 aircraft. Despite clear visibility, Lorient and its surrounding areas were already battered from previous attacks. However, over 1,000 tons of bombs were dropped that fateful night in an effort to cripple enemy forces further. The photograph serves as a testament to the courage and sacrifice displayed by those who fought in World War II. It encapsulates both the destructive power unleashed upon European soil and the resilience exhibited by nations engulfed in conflict during the forties. As we gaze upon this historical artifact from Memory Lane Prints, let us remember not only the horrors endured but also pay homage to those who valiantly stood against tyranny.
