Black Maria Posted 7 May , 2015 Posted 7 May , 2015 "The squadron set out eleven strong on the evening patrol. Eleven chocolate-coloured , lean, noisy bullets, lifting, swaying, turning, rising in formation...circling and climbing away steadily towards the lines. They are off to deal with Richthofen and his circus of Red Albatrosses" * Remembering Albert Ball V.C who died on this day Ninety Eight years ago * Sagittarius Rising ( Cecil Lewis )
