Here, in the brightening morning sky,
Typhoons are prepared for the first sortie of the day. One
has already fired up its big, powerful engine, blowing up
whirlwinds of Normandy dust; ground crew hover, ready to
remove chocks prior to taxi and take-off. A second is
readied, while the remainder of the squadron, widely
dispersed around the temporary field, are about to set about
their deadly missions of the day |
