Halifax pilot

A RAF’s Martin Baltimore medium bomber at Triolo Airfield, Puglia, after a rainstorm, Winter 1944. Repaired from an old Italian Air Force’s runways by American Engineer Corps in September 1943 and inserted in the Foggia Airfield Complex, Triolo was employed mainly by USAAF’s units. The raised little building in background is perhaps the control tower. Many former RAF’s Baltimore was transferred to Italian Co-belligerent Regia Aeronautica. Victor Sierra

After the rainstorm

Bombs exploding on Maleme airfield, Crete, during a daylight raid by Bristol Blenheim Mark IVs of No. 14 Squadron RAF, flying from LG 21/Qotafiya III, Egypt. The aircraft are Junkers Ju 52/3ms, most of them in a wrecked condition as a result of the landing of airborne troops on the airfield on 21 May 1941, during the German invasion of the island.
