1938 to 1941, in Sudan and Crete
Sandeha Lynch:
Not a photo essay but a link to a selection of 140 of my father's photos taken when he was first in the Merchant Navy and then in the RAF at the beginning of WWII, in Sudan, Egypt, and Crete.
I scanned these around 15 years ago and you may have seen some before but I recently edited and resized them. What once looked large on XP gradually appeared to shrink with increases in monitor resolution. One of those long overdue tasks prompted by our lock-down, I guess.

Wonderful set of photos. The view of the pyramids from the sky really struck me as I can't recall ever seeing a picture of them from that height/angle.

You're right. No jet would fly by at that height there now. They had the opportunity and it looks as though he anticipated the shots to have them lined up so well.
