EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the intense and crucial moment of re-arming and refueling three Hawker Hurricane I fighters of 601 Squadron at RAF Tangmere in 1940. The image, taken by Charles E. Brown of the Royal Air Force, offers a glimpse into the daily life of the Royal Air Force during the height of the Battle of Britain. The scene is one of frenetic activity, with ground crew members working diligently to ensure that these iconic fighter planes are ready for their next sortie. The Hurricanes, with their distinctive round fuselages and shark-like noses, are positioned in a neat row, their wings spanning the grassy expanse of the airfield. The pilots, clad in their flying gear and helmets, stand nearby, ready to climb aboard their machines and take to the skies once more. In the foreground, a ground crew member is in the process of attaching a jerry can to one of the Hurricanes, the fuel sloshing ominously as he works. Another crew member is in the process of loading ammunition into the fighter's belly, the spent brass casings littering the ground around him. The third Hurricane is being checked over by a mechanic, who is no doubt looking for any signs of damage or wear. The sky above is overcast, the clouds heavy with the promise of rain. But the ground crew do not seem to notice, their focus entirely on the task at hand. The scene is one of determination and resilience, a testament to the courage and dedication of the men and women of the Royal Air Force during the Battle of Britain. This photograph is a powerful reminder of the sacrifices made by the brave men and women of the RAF during World War II, and a testament to the importance of the work of the RAF Museum in preserving the history of the Royal Air Force.
