RAF 5: Air Chief Marshal Sir Christopher Foxley-Norris GCB DSO OBE and His Tribute to the Polish and Czech Squadrons

A Hawker Hurricane awaits the “scramble”. We get an idea of the kit worn when flying and fighting for one’s life. Image is believed to be of a hurricane Squadron during the Battle of Britain 10 Jul-30 August 1940 ‘somewhere in Britain’, its source possibly being IWM. As soon as the correct sourse and data is located, this will be updated and credited.

With thanks to IWM for this wonderful insight into our ground and aircrews. KTW
