Description
This aviation art print by Robert Taylor depicts a Lancaster of No. 61 Squadron, RAF, piloted by Flt. Lt. Bill Reid en route to Duesseldorf during the night of November 3rd 1943, under attack from a German Focke Wulf Fw-190. Already injured in a previous attack, Bill Reid was again wounded but pressed on for another 50 minutes to bomb the target, then fly his badly damaged aircraft on the long journey home. The courage and devotion to duty that earned Bill Reid the Victoria Cross, was a hallmark of RAF bomber crews throughout their long six year campaign.
