I hope that your group could maybe help with some research that I am doing. I work for a photographic company called Top Photo, who are currently gathering together pictures from World War II.
The picture quote is
'''Battle of Berlin'pilots.
A big present for Berlin. A member of the ground crew of 'U' for Uncle puts a last message, 'this is propaganda it's a proper bomb ', on a blockbuster on its way to Berlin on a Friday night raid.
28 November 1943''
All the picture shows is a bomb in bomb bay.
The only U for Uncles i have found are one that blew up after a bomb load from another aircraft was dropped occidentally while the aircraft were still on the ground in early 1943 , and another that joined its squadron in 1944.
I am hoping that you may be able to help me find both the aircraft ' ( which i believe to be a Lancaster) and the squadron??
