EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the essence of the Royal Canadian Air Force (RCAF) Memorial Airfield B9 Lantheuil during the height of its military operations. Located in France, this airfield was a significant site for Canadian aviation history, with Squadrons Nos 438, 439, and 440 flying from its runways. The RCAF's presence at Lantheuil was part of the larger Allied effort during World War II. Five main types of landing facilities were constructed on the site, with 'A' fields being American and 'B' fields being British or Canadian. This photograph showcases the meticulous planning and organization that went into creating an effective and efficient airfield. The image reveals a bustling scene of activity, with aircraft taking off and landing, and support personnel working diligently to ensure the smooth running of the base. The RCAF squadrons based at Lantheuil played a crucial role in the defense of Europe, and their legacy continues to be celebrated by aviation enthusiasts and historians alike. This photograph is a poignant reminder of the sacrifices made by the brave men and women of the RCAF during their time at Lantheuil. It captures the spirit of camaraderie, determination, and resilience that defined the RCAF's wartime efforts, and serves as a testament to the enduring legacy of Canadian military aviation.
