S/L Eddie "Hank" Hancock DFC Photo Collection

An amazing album (s) belonging to Squadron Leader Jesse Edwin George Hancock DFC (79181). He was initially with 38 Squadron.

The photos have been scanned and appear huge! As the webmaster states:

Quote:
TECHNICAL NOTE: many of these photographs were very small "contact" print size and have been much blown up and enlarged. When you download them you will see a "ragged edge" to the image. To cure this, download the large photos to your hard drive, and use something like Paint Shop Pro to "soften/blur" the image just a tad, you will be amazed and the cure!!
