West Africa, 1943: refueling operations with 100-octane fuel by local workers under the British personnel surveillance of a Royal Air Force Lockheed Hudson. The unit of this aircraft is likely the No 200 Squadron RAF based in Gambia, West Africa, where it flew convoy protection missions out of Jeswang, moving to Yundum in 1943, and equipped with Hudson Mk VI from 1942 to 1943. Later the No 200 Squadron was re-equipped with the four-engined Consolidated Liberator VI bombers (Ministry of Information Second World War Colour Transparency Collection Catalogue number TR 747).
