Collector's autograph display featuring the original signatures of Air Marshal Sir IVOR BROOM KCB CBE DSO DFC* AFC and Wing Commander ROY RALSTON DSO* AFC DFM - RAF Bomber Command.
Both pilots began the war flying the outdated Blenheim on perilous raids over Germany and occupied territories and both completed the war flying the high performance Mosquito against targets in Germany. Both Mosquito pilots formed inseparable bonds with their navigators, relying implicitly on each other's finely honed skills - both became highly decorated. After low-level missions against enemy shipping off the coast of France, Broom and his Blenheims transferred to Malta to harass Rommel's North African shipping supply lines. Returning to the UK in 1943 he became one of the Pathfinder's most prominent Mosquito pilots until the war's end. Roy Ralston, flying Mosquitos with 105 Sqn, completed a second tour of low-level bombing missions with an attack on the railway works at Trier. He too, then joined Bennett's Pathfinder Force.
