Remarkable WW2 photos

I don’t recall this link being posted previously, and my apologies if it has, but I think all will agree the photos are well worth the viewing.

The shot of the Mossie on the ground shows a BOAC example. The pilot in the photograph was to lose his life later when his aircraft crashed into high ground in Scotland.

I’d been told previously how D-day stripes were very rough, applied by hand… That Spitfire photo shows it perfectly!

It looks worse than one of my teenage airfix efforts! I like the terrain model makers, interesting to see them at work. The ‘British bomber’ interior shot is a Halifax.
