R.A.F. BOMBERS OVER COLOGNE.—Pictures taken during R.A.F. raids over the German city of Cologne, which has been bombed a hundred times. LEFT: The background of this picture is filled with the explosions of anti-aircraft shells as the bomber slips away. Barely discernible in the circle is an R.A.F. bomber surrounded by anti-aircraft bursts. RIGHT: The smoke from the stacks of the great power plant is normal, but the ground smoke on the right of the picture is caused by fires started by the daring bombers, some of which flew as close as 100 feet to make sure of their targets. The wing of a departing bomber is shown. Southland Times, Issue 24565, 14 October 1941, Page 6
