Spitfire
Gallant Ohio by Taylor
Depicted some 60 miles out of Malta, the American tanker Ohio lies dead in the water, her decks almost awash. The destroyer HMS Bramham is lashed alongside the stricken tanker. A second destroyer, HMS Penn, is closing on her starboard quarter, while a third, HMS Ledbury, positions herself astern to provide steerage. An ocean-going tug and a minesweeper have arrived to assist. Above, Spitfires of 126 and 185 Squadrons bring down an enemy aircraft making a last desperate attack upon the gallant flotilla.
