Great pictures mate :salute::salute:

Crackin shots Grant, it looks like the lighting conditions were as challenging as those I encountered at RAF Hendon.

Those midget sub pictures are pretty cool, as was the photo of the torpedo. Those midget sub torps were absolutely horrid torps.:o

Lighting was a major PITA, but got more good shots than fuzzy ones so I'm relatively happy.

Yes. Either we were on the same side or he's a POW being used as an assistant medic. Common practise on both sides from what I've read. Not so much on the Eastern Front though.:hmmm:
