Think I've seen this before but not colourised, ladies making model terrain for RAF training during WW2 . It looks rather modern like the terrain cloths you can buy nowadays,
What a marvellous photo. Sans caption it is a wonderful piece of history, add caption and it is another for your wargaming humour series! Best wishes, James
Very interesting picture Tony! It looks a lot like they're quilting! I'm sure that it was an excellent training tool!
ReplyDeleteI'm not sure how it was used to train pilots etc ?

DeleteNice to see that one coloured and it does look like the mats you can buy today.
ReplyDeleteYes I've seen the black and white one before, must look into how they where used.
