The only crew in Coastal Command to sink two U-boats in one sortie was that of Flying Officer Kenneth Owen Moore, a Canadian serving with No 224 Squadron. 'Kayo' Moore, seen here on the right with his bomb aimer Warrant Officer Johnston 'Jock' McDowell, achieved this dramatic feat on the night of 7/8 June 1944, when flying a 'Cork' patrol over the Western end of the Channel.

Coastal Command Crew

British Prime Minister Winston Churchill inspects Britain's Grenadier guards standing at attention in front of Light Bren gun armored units in July, 1940. 

Inspection

On 23 November 1943 a force of 23 Beaufighters from Nos 236 and 254 Squadrons, escorted by Spitfires, attacked a southbound convoy off Texel on the Dutch coast. This dramatic shot was taken as the first of two torpedoes slammed into the largest ship in the convoy, a 7,000-ton tanker, breaking its back.
