Framed Print : Pigeons, recruited into the RAF as a valuable means of communication often become war
Framed Photos from Memory Lane
Pigeons, recruited into the RAF as a valuable means of communication often become war
Pigeons, recruited into the RAF as a valuable means of communication often become war casualties. In many cases they are shot at by farmers who mistake them for pests. In this picture Flight Lieutenant Arthur H. Lancaster of Weybridge, Surrey, extracts a pellet from a bird which had landed at a Halifax bomber station in Yorkshire after bringing back news which resulted in the air/sea rescue of a bomber crew. The bird was shot at over home territory, but flew on to its homing base, and has now recovered from its injuries. The nursing orderly is Corporal W.H. Thomas of Birmingham, formerly a blacksmith. Picture issued May 1945
