Some of the crew look like they should have still been at school.

Kerry, it was true ............ they were just out of school, from 16 years upwards.
Here is another nice drawing.
Cheers,

Hi John,

Fantastic drawings!
The first one is a 196 Squadron's Stirling & crew. Is it possible to have more info?
Thanks in advance.
Kind regards.

Hi Bruno, if I remember correctly, there was very little details available. You could try the source detail listed though.
Cheers,

I was just looking for information on Operation 'Tonga' for another thread here on the forum, when I came across this great drawing.
