EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative illustration depicts a pivotal moment in the early days of World War II, as Royal Air Force (RAF) Wellington bombers carry out a daring raid on the German airfield at Stavanger, Norway, in April 1940. The Wellington, a twin-engine, long-range bomber, was a vital component of the RAF's strategic bombing campaign against the Axis powers. In this illustration, we see several Wellingtons dropping their bombs on the German airfield, with explosions and smoke rising in the background. The bravery and skill of the RAF aircrews were on full display as they faced the challenges of night-time bombing, navigating in unfamiliar territory, and the ever-present threat of enemy anti-aircraft fire and fighter interception. The attack on Stavanger airfield was part of Operation Catapult, a series of coordinated raids on German airfields in Norway aimed at neutralizing the German air force's ability to interfere with the Allied evacuation of Allied troops from Norway. The operation was a success, with the RAF destroying or damaging over 100 German aircraft on the ground. This illustration is a testament to the courage and determination of the RAF during this critical period in world history. The date of this illustration is April 1940, and it is believed to have been created by an unknown artist for Illustrated London News (ILN), a prominent British weekly newspaper at the time. The image provides a unique and compelling perspective on the events of the early days of the war and the crucial role played by the RAF in defending the Allied cause.
