EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the spirit of the Free French Air Force during World War II, as a Morane-Saulnier MS-406 fighter aircraft sits parked on the apron with RAF roundels under its wings. The date on the image is 1939, a time when France was on the brink of being overrun by German forces. The Free French Forces, also known as the French Forces of the Interior and the Free French Air Force (FAFL), were a French resistance movement that continued to fight for France's freedom and independence, even after the fall of France in June 1940. The MS-406, a single-engine, single-seat monoplane, was a formidable fighter aircraft of its time. It was produced by the Morane-Saulnier aircraft manufacturing company in France and was known for its agility and maneuverability. This particular aircraft, identified by the number L 848 and the squadron number 819, was part of the Free French Air Force. The RAF roundels under the wings indicate that this aircraft had been transferred to the RAF for use during the war. The photograph provides a glimpse into the past, a time when the future of France hung in the balance. The human element is present in the image, with the shadow of a person visible at the edge of the frame, adding to the sense of history and the sacrifices made by the men and women who fought for their country during this pivotal period in history.
