Avro Lancaster Aviation Aircraft Christmas Card
A damaaged Lancaster being given moral support by a Spitfire of 118 Squadron.
Having survived barrages of flak and attacks by Luftwaffe night fighters, the crew of a Lancaster straggler can relax a little and admire the dawn breaking over the Norfolk broads. They are just a few miles from base now and have the protection of a 118 Squadron Spitfire. Based at RAF Coltishall, 118 Squadron were tasked with protecting Norwich, Great Yamouth, Kings Lynn and other local towns.
