Fresh from successful action over marauding Me110s and Me109s
attempting a raid on Portland during the Battle of Britain, Spitfires
of 152 Squadron return to their base at Warmwell to re-fuel and
re-arm. As the distinctive sound of their Merlin engines echoes
around Lulworth Cove, one of the Spitfires - hit during the engagement
- is starting to smoke. Thankfully all will land safely, ready
to continue the bitter struggle while Goering’s Luftwaffe
begin to intensify their attacks as they try to gain air superiority
during one of the most decisive battles ever fought. An outstanding
piece released to commemorate the 70th Anniversary of the Battle
of Britain
