A Lysander prepares to leave its base on yet another dangerous and secret mission to drop agents into occupied France during WWII.

Agents having to slip away into the countryside, constantly aware that the enemy could discover them at any moment. They were the bravest of the brave. SOLD OUT. Signed by Flight Lieutenant R G (Bob) Large, DFC, Legion d Honneur (deceased). Signed limited edition of 100 prints. Paper size 27 inches x 18 inches (69cm x 46cm)
Item #2 - Click to view individual item DHM2594. Moonlight by Gerald Coulson. Flying secret agents in and out of occupied France, transporting arms and radio equipment to the Resistance, and collecting downed airmen from behind enemy lines, was one of the most hazardous flying operations of World War II. These cloak and dagger sorties, always conducted at night by the light of the moon, required a cool head and inordinate flying and navigational skills - a duty performed courageously by the pilots of RAF Special Duty Squadrons. Due to their clandestine nature, the true magnitude of their operations only became fully appreciated when the war was over. Signatories: Flt Lt Peter Arkell (deceased). Signed limited edition of 350 prints. Print paper size 19 inches x 16 inches (48cm x 41cm)
