Camel C76 was used by No 213 Sqn RAF on the northern part of the Western
Front. It force landed on rough ground north of Bergues on 29 September
1919; Lt K G Ibison was unhurt. If this is the incident in the photo, the
men standing around don't appear to be too concerned.



The serial display on the upper wing is most unusual, especially for a front
line aircraft. It looks more like a training unit's display, but C76 didn't
serve with a TDS.
