Description
©Gill Billington. All rights reserved. This black and white photograph of a Douglas Dakota C-47 Skytrain is a close up from the rear of the wing showing the famous black and white stripes which made it easy to identify from the ground as it was flying overhead. These aircraft were used as Military transport in WW2 and were sent to Normandy on D-day to parachute troops into France to liberate the French from German occupation.
The Douglas C-47 Skytrain was the military version of the original DC-3 which had been used as a passenger plane before the war.
