The Heinkel He 111 is the iconic bomber of the Battle of Britain era, even though it was outdated and vulnerable to the modern RAF monoplane fighters of the time. With its limited bomb load and scant defensive armament, this Art Deco bomber suffered heavy losses during the campaign. Here, a He 111 of III/KG 55 ends its career in a field near the Horse & Jockey pub in the appropriately named village of Worlds End near Southwick, Hampshire, England. The bomber was shot down by Hurricanes of No. 43 Sqn RAF on the July 12, 1940.

So I wonder if the lads all nipped 'round for a pint and a wee whiskey after they captured the downed pilots?? 🤔
