Re: Which stories behind these photos?
Just to end the confusion YH was used on 21 Sqn Lockheed Venturas in NW Europe and by 11 Sqn in the Middle East on Blenheims.

The photo of the Blenheim on this thread is virtually the same setting as the YH-L coded Blenheim said to be abandoned in Crete - as seen on Page 32 of 'In Enemy Hands' by Bryan Philpott by PSL 1981. Even the way the aircraft individual code has been placed on YH-D is the same as YH-L.

112 Sqn was a Fighter Sqn flying the Tomahawks and Kittyhawks for much of WW2.
