Indeed Ryan, well worth posting. I recommend any passer's by to take the time to have a look.
Liked the Hurricane shot, kids loved the Italians hiding in the cactus and the searchlight. Something for everyone here. Thanks! Rich.

One caption mentioned that Italian POWs were sent to London. There was a camp in Osterley Park which was then in Middlesex, but since 1965 in west London, and they were released on parole to go into town. Dad says that they frequented an Italian-owned tea/ice cream restaurant called Rossis and had to endure cat-calls from the public.

I like the picture of the carrier leading the mass of prisoners. A mark of the authority the little carrier created for itself. Quite symbolic.

Hi robert, it's an early carrier, an LP1 or early british type, I'm sure quite sure which. Before they went with the more 'universal' type.
