EDITORS COMMENTS
De Havilland Mosquito FB Mark VIs of No. 248 Squadron RAF unleash a devastating attack on enemy vessels in the mouth of the Gironde River, off Royan, France. This powerful photograph captures the intense combat action during World War II on August 12th, 1944. The brave pilots skillfully maneuver their fighter bombers towards a German M class minesweeper and two trawler auxiliaries. With deadly precision, bombs are released from above, creating a dramatic splash as they straddle the minesweeper's hull. The explosive impact is evident as chaos erupts amidst billowing smoke and debris. Moments later, an earth-shattering explosion engulfs the doomed minesweeper, marking another victory for the Royal Air Force's Coastal Command. This image serves as a poignant reminder of the courage and determination displayed by these wartime heroes who risked everything to defend freedom against tyranny. The De Havilland Mosquito FB Mark VIs played a crucial role in aerial warfare during World War II with their speed and versatility. Memory Lane Prints presents this historic print to honor those who fought valiantly in this pivotal moment of history.
