A crowd gather around a plane on an airfield

No. 460 Squadron Lancaster 'G—George' surrounded by a large crowd at an Australian airfield on Anzac Day 1945. George survived ninety operations over enemy territory and had been flown by twenty-seven crews before an all-Australian crew flew her home in 1944. The following year George toured Australia's eastern states for the Third Victory Loan. Today the famous Lancaster is the centrepiece of one of the Australian War Memorial's most well-known exhibitions. [AWM P03100.013]
