„Attack Imminent“

from the gallery of James Biggadike
Description:

Just before 4pm on the South East Coast the calm was broken as over 300 bombers and 600 fighters began heading for Kent and Sussex in two waves an hour apart. As this was the largest raid it had yet faced, Fighter Command alerted 10, 11 and 12 Groups. By 4.30pm, all 21 squadrons within 70 mile radius of London were in the air or ready to take off.
