A member of the air force kisses a civilian woman holding up a newspaper with the headline VE DAY – IT'S ALL OVER', as other airmen crowd around them, drinking beer and making victory gestures.

Crews of RAAF No 463 and No 467 (Lancaster) Squadrons who throughout the day had flown more than 500 liberated prisoners of war from German camps back to England, celebrate a belated VE Day in their station mess at RAF Station Waddington, Lincolnshire, in May 1945. AWM UK2852
