PR photo that almost stopped operation Market-Garden
Hello,
I would like to know if one of you could help me to discover the identity of the pilot ( name and Squadron ) of the RAF that took the 5 pictures of German Panzers of 9 SS Pz.Division at Arnhem on the 15th September 1944. Those 5 pictures were analized by the S.I.O. ( Senior Intelligence Officer ), Major Urquhart, who asked General Eisenhower to stop Operation-Market Garden.
I took this information from the classic book writen by Cornelius Ryan. I read it twice, but never figured out why he did not put the name of the pilot who took those famous pictures or mentioned the Squadron.
Does anyone know IF those pictures exists today? Were they ever published? Where?
Glad in advance for any information about this particular fact.
Cheers for all
Adriano
