Description100 years of the RAF MOD 45163635.jpg |
English: Amazing vertical photograph taken during the night attack on the German tank and vehicle depot at Mailly-le-Camp, France, on 3/4 May 1944 by 346 Lancaster's and Halifax's of Nos 1 and 5 Groups, Bomber Command.
A Lancaster, silhouetted by a large explosion, clears the target area during the raid which, although successful in the levels of destruction caused, was costly in terms of losses, 42 being shot down by Luftwaffe night fighters.
