Re: Where was 180 Sqn RAF stationed on 14 December 1944? See pics
Been away for a couple of weeks so sorry about the delay. Yes, Reg Speller was a Fox photographer. If you google 'reg speller fox photos 2nd TAF' you will see a photo of 193 Sqn Typhoon at Deurne in Dec 44; there is an almost identical shot in the Charles E Brown collection (which is now held by the RAF Museum, Hendon). Speller was employed by Fox but Brown was freelance.
It is a long time since I looked through the CEBrown collection and I can't recall the Ju188. However I would be surprised if he missed the opportunity to photograph a Luftwaffe machine in close-up. RAFM might be able to help.
The photos on the link posted by RSwank are the 124 Wing shots I mentioned. There is a third photo in the group but it shows the same hangar facade (IWM CL3979 to 81 inclusive).
Best of luck
Chris
