W/C Tom Neil 75 Anniversaty BoB Today

Any chance someone who is there and in the ‘know’ could ask nicely if W/C Tom Neil could recreate this picture taken by Cecil Beaton in front of a Hurricane?

At the age of 95 he does not have to be putting on his parachute at the same time!

Kind Regards

It would be lovely if he is able to recreate this shot. I think the hair may be a little less Ginger though these days 🙂

That would be the jolly round West Sussex and round the IoW then.
I wonder what pilot/2 seater has the honour ?

Apparently he will be in the lead Spitfire of White Section so although not a Hurricane a similar pic ought to be possible.
