Another couple of Spitfires on the Beach

Here are two more pictures of crash landed Spitfires on a beach. Both have the old fashioned tail flash so I'm thinking Dunkirk..

Any information appreciated.

Re: Another couple of Spitfires on the Beach

Kaki,

I own a print of this image. It shows 54 Squadron's PO Alan C Deere's N3180 KLoB "KIWI" down on the beach at De Panne, Belgium, on May 28, 1940. He burned out the center section of his plane when he abandoned it after FL on the beach.

Regards,
