A swarm of bees searching for a home, decided to take up their quarters in an aperture in
A swarm of bees searching for a home, decided to take up their quarters in an aperture in the port rudder of " Q for Queenie" a Halifax bomber at an airfield in the north of England.
" Queenie" was on operations that nighty and while her crew were quite ready for the Germans, they were not prepared to take off with a flight of intruders already inside the bomber.
The Flight Sergeant in charge of the ground staff was called and after a discussion on how to get rid of the swarm, someone remembered that there was a man in the next village who kept bees. So he was called in to do the job, and " Q for Queenie" took off that night to sting the Germans - but minus the bees.
Picture shows; The waiting crew watch from a respectful distance as Mr Webster peers into the bees hide-out.
