my god he's so young. Can't imagine going through what those guys did when I was just starting uni.

My father was Gallands and Prillers main radio operator. He was extremely fast on Morse. Interesting video

Mine also

Tell me that isn't Andrew Garfield on the left and Antonio Banderas on the right? Lmao what

My Dad is in XPM FO Eric Little Australia

If it was the RCAF, it was called a Canso

This doesn’t look like Eglin Air Force Base. It looks a lot more like Nellis because you had those F5 aggressor.

And of the 90 pilots in the sq uadron, half were killed.

349 and 350 Squadron never flew Spitfire XIV during the war. They received Spitfire XVI in 1944. Both squadrons kept these aircraft 'on loan' after the war until the order of Spitfire XIV came through. All Spit 14's were delivered between April 1947 and July 1949.

Way too short but great stuff. For me the P-39 is #1.

Do you have any more footage of 150?

Very interesting footage. How resourceful of the English to utilise it as a transport plane instead of scrapping it! Another thing I noticed is the roundels, which appear to be very different from what was being used during 1942. The proportions of the circles are more akin to their modern roundel.

My grandfather. 331st Squadron. Rougham Air Field. Bury St. Edmonds. Shot down Jan. 11, 1944, POW. 9 of 10 survived captivity. One KIA.

My great uncle was in Dallas Dollie 332 squadron.. MIA 5-31-45 training mission North Sea 😢

This looks like RAF Lindholme. Its Prison since 1986 it still has all original buildings and hangers.

In 1944, on the night of 28/29 July, coming back from Stuttgart, having just flown into French airspace , an RAF Lancaster Bomber from 35 Squadron NZ , Rear Gunner Winkie Kirk, my Uncle Jimmy landed on Earth , and joined the Caterpillar Club.

I served with the 35th TFW at Sheikh Isa in Desert Shield/Desert Storm, Security Forces.

My Headmaster at school, Tom Holloway, was on this raid and shot down. He was the only surviver from his crew and was captured and sent, eventually, to Stalag Luft 3 and billeted in Hut 103, next to the famous Hut 104. He was one of the 'Penguins' tasked with disposing of the soil from 'Harry' by the use of 'sausages' down their trouser legs.

My dad, Fsgt George Moss, flew in the Boston light bomber/fighter in 18 squadron from 1941 to 1946 , he was an air gunner, the rest of the crew were: WO Charles F.L. Head (Plt). Sgt John Seddon (nav). Sgt Arthur Cook(wopag). They were based in Italy and then in North Africa with 55 squadron, if anyone has any information and/or pictures, i would be most grateful. Many thanks

Did you have the date of the footage ? One of this plane crash in april 1943 near Brest in my garden 😔

hi, have you anymore footage of 55FG ?

Dahl claimed credit for the Sturmbocke tactic the fraud.

Amazing bit of german aircraft footage ❤

🙂🙂🙂👌

INTERESANTE

Which airfield?

Thank you for Freedom Great respect ! BOWS !

Any reason this clip has so many views? Family connections? I ask because my father flew with 342 squadron.

Nice smile !

I am msearching any footage about mission over Italy as: Wednesday, 25 April 1945 USAAF Chronology: MTO Tactical Operations (12th AF): HQ 321st BG Mission Summary (Ops Order 895/mission 895) Group Mission # 895: Cavarzere Road Bridge, Italy (G-492182)

Witness them calmly organising the food to be shared out, even though they were all hungry 🫡

Hi Zoran, You posted in the "12 O'Clock high" forum about Flt Sgt James Robin Mallinson Service no. 1289628. I am researching his service at the moment and am trying to find who has the original photograph (Douglas Ian Benham's collection) of him sitting in Spitfire VB " B G"? Can you help?

Amazing to find this video. My dad was a pilot in 142 Sqdn from mid 1943 until early 1944. In Tunisia and then Cerignola. I'm not sure which wing he was in. So incredible to see this footage

My father, William A. Scroggins, was a waist gunner in the 90th Bomb Group, 400th Bomb Squadron. He was a member of 1LT Willard G. Hatfield's crew until the summer of 1943 when he transferred to the Armament Section. He passed in July 2000. Really miss him.

Could be my dad kicking them out - he was a dispatcher in this squadron at Brindisi /Foggia since his Midupper gun turret was dumped on this model

Where are you seeing the No.132 Squadron RAF Spits? The ones starting up are the section from No.442 Squadron RCAF that were sent over around 0800 hrs, coming back later in the morning, which we see here with Larry Robillard, DFM, firing up 'P'. The ones taking off I believe are a station flight.

My grandfather S/Sgt Michael hitchak was a nose gunner in the 465th BG, 782nd bomb squadron. I’ve been trying like hell to find info on him. I have pictures. Nothing giving any details on his specific aircraft. His crew was written about in the book missing in action. By gene f moxley. Do you have any info to try and track down anything about him? Thanks

Hello Zoran, Could I use this footage along with 'RAF No 264 Squadron Defiant' for a short trailer I am putting together for a book I wrote some years ago titled 'RAf Southed 1940-1944'? Full credit and link to your Youube Channel will be made of course. Peter

My father was a 102 Squadron Pilot in 1945 and flew the Mark VI Halifax on around 14 operations. He was a huge fan of the plane. Considerably more powerful and faster than the Mark III with a top speed of 25mph faster than a Lancaster.

Where’s LT. Will West from “Heroes Over Europe”?

My father in law FO Dewey Sowder flew with the 459th in 43 and 44.

The RAF had to convince the Nazi anti aircraft batteries that they weren't on a low level bombing raid and were dropping badly needed food to the Dutch rather than HE ordnance on German targets. The Nazis were persuaded and didn't open fire; had they done so there would have been a lot of aircrews not coming home as the Lancasters were sitting targets flying at almost zero altitude.

Where did you find this footage? I would like to get a copy of it to touch it up some and make the image clearer.

Most of the support staff for 604 squadron in WWII were in 2604 Servicing Echelon. 604 acquired Mosquitos in February 1944. French airfields used after D Day were Mampertus July 1944 - August 1944 Picauville August 1944 - September 1944 Capiquet September 1944 -September 1944 (Cornwall and Hants September 1944 -January 1945) Lille/|Vendeville January 1945 - April 1945 .

These young 20 something year olds seriously put their lives on the line each time they went 'wheels up' to face the enemy. Today, young 20 something year olds feel unsafe if someone just says something they don't like or uses the wrong pronoun for them.
