Yes, great photos. I just started on the first set, "Before the war". I had not seen some of those before. Have lots of viewing ahead.

This was pretty special too!

 

"Buss" Mascot with an R.A.F. Squadron stationed in Libya, on February 15, 1942, takes a few personal liberties with the pilot of an American-Built Tomahawk plane somewhere in the Western Desert.

There are SO many great ones. Several I had seen before and in fact one which is in my documentary, but this one really stands out too. Very cool shot!

 

This pattern of anti-aircraft fire provides a protective screen over Algiers at night. The photo, recording several moments of gunfire, shows a defense thrown up during an axis raid upon Algiers in North Africa on April 13, 1943. (AP Photo)
