Arctic Hunters by Richard Taylor. (B)

Arctic Hunters by Richard Taylor. (B) Occupied by the Germans, by 1942 Norway had become vital to Hitlers war in the East. With the Russians threatening to over-run Finland and attack Norway, the pilots of JG5 were tasked to support German ground forces, and to escort the incessant Luftwaffe attacks on Arctic Convoys from Britain to the vital Russian ports of Murmansk and Archangel. With such unpredictably harsh weather it was a life or death battle fought under extreme conditions. For the pilots of JG5 - Eismeer, the Polar Sea Group, the sun never set during the long summer months, and due to constant fog and storms it was often impossible for pilots to return to base, often diverting to other airstrips. But their darkest moment came in December 1944 when their Kommodore, Heinrich Ehrler, one of the Luftwaffes most brilliant fighter leaders, was made a scapegoat following the sinking of the German battleship Tirpitz in a Norwegian fjord. Despite holding the Knights Cross with Oak Leaves and nominated for the Swords, he was convicted. High in the Arctic Circle a bitter war of attrition was fought in freezing, unforgiving conditions, the desperate conflict played out against a majestic, awe-inspiring backdrop of beautiful ice-clad mountains. Richard Taylors spectacular painting portrays the Me109s of 6./JG5 led by Oberleutnant Heinrich Ehrler, while based at Petsamo in Finland, as they soar high above the towering peaks of ice capped mountains glistening in the cold polar air, March 1943. Their dawn patrol keeps constant vigil along the glacial fjords of the Norways far-northern coastline, as the majestic vista gives the battle-hardened Me109 pilots a brief moment of tranquility far removed from the grim and bitter battles being fought below.

British Rail Journeys.  Blaenau Ffestiniog

British Rail Journeys.  Blaenau Ffestiniog The Ffestiniog Railway, starting on the glorious Welsh Coastline at Pothmadog, protected by the imposing castles of Harlech and Criccieth, is a memorable journey through the Snowdonia National Park. From Harbour Station at Porthmadog, the train climbs through the sleepy pastures and luscious forest, skirting lakes and waterfalls. clinging to and tunneling through the sides of mountains, the track takes in horseshoe bends which include a complete spiral. This area is so remote that the train is occasionally required to stop at isolated cottages whose inhabitants depend entirely upon the railway. The journey covers the 13.5 miles from Portmadog, rising to over 700 feet above sea level at Bleanau Ffestiniog.

Second Lieutenant Henderson Flying down into the British lines after his left leg had been severed by a shell.

Second Lieutenant Henderson Flying down into the British lines after his left leg had been severed by a shell. While making a photographic reconnaissance over the enemys lines, the aeroplane in which Second Lieutenant (temporary Lieutenant) Malcolm Henderson, of the 4th (Ross Highland) Battalion, Seaforth Highlanders (Rosshire Buffs, the Duke of Albanys) Territorial Force, and Royal Flying Corps, was flying, was struck by a shell from a German anti aircraft gun. Passing through the nacelle of the machine, the shell took off Lieutenant Hendersons left leg just below the knee. In spite of this serious injury he succeeded in planing down from a height of 7,000 feet and in safely landing 3,000 yards behind the British lines. His cool and courageous action, for which he was awarded the D.S.O. saved the life of the observer.
