Great photo, Mick.

Tells us, who are "from Away", so much; about a Classic and its Crew.

Thanks for sharing.

Regards, from Canada,

This really is a great photo, Mick, better than the previous one. I just received my copy of the British book "UNDER FIRE", and as I thumbed through it I was very much aware that there was a real shortage of photos such as yours, the men and the equipment which they used. Possibly you can see if others exist and put them on this site which has a sympathetic webmaster and quite a number of folks interested in this important chapter of British history.
