A photograph taken from a Handley Page Hailfax of No. 427 Squadron RCAF during a major night raid by a mixed force of 128 aircraft on the German submarine base at Lorient, France. Sticks of incendiary bombs are burning among port installations as smoke drifts from well-established fires, (upper left). A photoflash bomb (top right) from the Halifax clearly illuminates the concrete U-boat pens and radial slips turntable at Keroman (lower centre), and also two Vickers Wellingtons in the target area.
