COMBAT OVER THE MED
 
I know that there have been a number of you interested in me doing a book on the 300+ original and dated camera gun shots predominantly by far from 252 Sqn so you will be pleased to know that it is progressing well and is expected to be out in the Summer. I will say that tying up the photos to the F540/ORB has been both fascinating and enjoyable

Just as a taster, the photo qualities are superb

Amazon UK says its due out on 30 June.

Seems to me the Beaufighter in the cover photo has a quite unusual RP installation.

Steve: Photo was taken at Gambut 14 Jul 44 and shows LZ286/A loaded with what is described as rocket flares

Very crisp looking images. Looking forward to the book.
Any clue as to the identity of the vessel under attack in the first picture?

Re: COMBAT OVER THE MED
 
The ship in the picture is identified & the full story of the attack accompanies the photos (there is more than one photo in the sequence)

As usual this is a fantastic source of reference material and I do like the format.
