Description: A vintage photo taken by Aviation Cadet G.A. Bennett of the Royal Air Force. He was part of the Arnold Scheme program, where British pilots trained and prepared for war in the United States in the early war years. He was stationed in bases throughout the state during 1942 and 1943. This photo was taken by him and orginates from his personal album. It is likely one of a kind. Type & Size: A 2.5x3.5" original photograph.Condition: Original and in fair to good vintage condition. As it originated from a personal photo album from the 1940s it may contain remnants from being part of an album - marks, scuffs, pieces of cardboard or adhesives, etc. please see the photo scans for precise condition. A Royal Air Force pilot is seen sitting on the railing of a bridge near Atlanta, Georgia, in 1942. The photo captures him in uniform with a slight smile, and there's a vehicle approaching in the background against a tree-lined road.During World War II, the presence of RAF personnel in the United States, particularly near Atlanta, was part of the Lend-Lease program and other cooperative efforts between the Allied forces. This image likely represents the camaraderie and alliance during a significant period of military collaboration.
