They Landed by Moonlight - Artist Proof by Philip West


They Landed by Moonlight - Artist Proof by Philip West features a Special Operation Executive Westland Lysander on a covert mission.

With little more than a map, compass and watch, Lysander pilots of the Special Operation Executive (SOE) roamed far and wide over occupied Europe. Mainly during full moon periods, they would deliver equipment to the Resistance, drop off secret agents then return to Britain with escaping aircrew or agents. The skill and bravery of these pilots was remarkable.

Each print in Philip West's Limited Edition, They landed by Moonlight, is signed by SOE Lysander pilot:
Flt. Lt. Bob Large DFC.
