There are few scenes quite so evocative as the vision of a once mighty warbird resting silently in its watery grave. The men who flew this Fortress and who, with countless others, braved the odds to fight for freedom in Europe against the tyranny of Nazi Germany and her Axis allies, now live in peace. But they have never forgotten that fateful day when, with smoking engines and badly damaged by enemy fighters, they were forced to ditch their aircraft in these warm shallow seas to await rescue.

Randall Scott, an accomplished diver, is an internationally acclaimed artist specialising in the painting of underwater aircraft wrecks. This outstanding and unusual painting is an extraordinary and moving tribute to those young airmen of the USAAF.
