Diggers' Page

You just about didn't make it this month, digs. Why? We've run out of pix, and if it wasn't for Geoff Gould and Jack McNamara, we wouldn't have been able to print this page. Dig into the forgotten drawers, dig, and dig deep, otherwise this page will have to go into recess indefinitely, but definitely.

This pic of searchlights should bring back memories for any Battle of Britain types and those in England during this period.
