397th Bombardment Group mural, Rivenhall Airfield, Essex. Photos taken April 2017.
The site is now the location of a road sweeping company. I discovered these in one of their storage buildings. 397th Bomb Group collection

I hope the photos will be of interest, especially to the families of the pilots. I took these photos while working on the site last year and was amazed the the murals still survive.
