First picture of the R.A.F. in action over the Norwegian coast.
10 april 1940
First picture of the R.A.F. in action over the Norwegian coast. Near Kristiansand: A large Merchantman with Hatches open. A cross can be seen painted on the Deck behind the bridge structure. This would suggest a Deliberate attempt to represent to Britsh aviators that this was a neutral vessel, not, as was evidently the case, carrying Nazi stores etc. one other merchantman and two small vessels can be seen there are many ice floes along the coast. Picture taken April 10th
