Aviation art by Troy White depicting the RAF Eagle Squadron No. 121 in action
over Dieppe 19th August 1942. 121 Eagle Squadron is depicted over Dieppe on
August 19, 1942 during their first sortie of the day 0840-1030. Pictured from
bottom to top are: F/Lt W.J. Daley AV-D (AA841) Sgt G. Carpenter AV-I (P8339)
P/O G.B. Fetrow AV-P (BM401) P/O E.B. Smith AV-W (AB423). The Eagle
Squadrons were made up of American pilots who joined the RAF in order to
fight the Nazis before the USA was involved in WWII. The Dieppe Raid in which
so many Canadian soldiers lost their lives marked the first and only action in
which all three Eagle Squadrons, 71, 121 and 133, operated together. In
September of 1942 the three squadrons were officially turned over by the RAF
to the fledgling 8th Air Force and became the famous 4th Fighter Group.
