Description
A professionally printed special edition commemorative card honouring the Hawker Hurricane and its operational history with No. 28 Squadron, Royal Air Force. The card is hand-signed in black ink by Flight Lieutenant T.E. Adams. The printed text confirms that the card was personally signed by a veteran who flew the Hawker Hurricane while serving with No. 28 Squadron in South East Asia. During the Second World War, No. 28 Squadron was a distinguished unit within the South East Asia Command (SEAC), operating primarily in the Burma campaign. The squadron was tasked with vital tactical reconnaissance and ground-attack missions, often flying at low altitudes to support the 14th Army. The card features the squadron’s official motto, Whatsoever you may do, do, and is finished with green typeface. This item serves as a significant piece of RAF ephemera relating to the often-overlooked Forgotten Army campaign in the Far East.
Condition report:
The card is in excellent condition, appearing near-mint. The cardstock remains bright and clean with no evidence of foxing, creasing, or yellowing. The corners and edges are sharp. The signature of Flight Lieutenant T.E. Adams is bold, clear, and shows no signs of fading or smudging. The item is currently preserved in a protective clear plastic sleeve.
