RAF passing the Army, Tunisia, 1943

Here we see a column of RAF vehicles moving up to Tunis passing a convoy from the 8th Army heading south to Tripoli on 20 May 1943, only a week after the end of the Tunisian campaign on 13 May 1943.

Many thanks to Philip Cowlishaw for sending us these pictures, which came from the collection of his father Douglas Cowlishaw, who served with No.70 Squadron in Egypt, Libya, Tunisia and Italy.
