Description

Almost first to welcome Douglas Bader on to enemy occupied soil was the gallant commander of Luftwaffe fighter Wing JG-26, Gruppenkommandeur Adolf Galland. Until that point they had been sworn enemies but, in time, they were to become life-long friends. Recalling his most memorable day in combat, General Galland described the events of 21 June, 1941: Commanding JG-26's Me109s, Galland intercepted a formation of Spitfires and Blenheim bombers, shooting down two before being hit and forced to crash-land at Calais-Merk. That afternoon he was back in combat, shooting down a Spitfire before being hit again, injured and, his aircraft on fire, forced to bail out. That evening, after treatment, he was relaxing with a brandy and cigar when told he had been awarded Swords to his Knight's Cross.Robert Taylor's fine painting shows Adolf Galland completing the first attack of his "Most Memorable Day"...Pencil print signed by the artist : Robert Taylor...priced @ £175.00...To complement the purchase of your fine art print, we are now able to offer a professional Picture Framing service.
