1943 Press Photo London Woman Salvages Belongings from Bomb-Wrecked Home

Sailin' thru London, England - Smiling cheerfully as she salvages her belongings from a bomb-wrecked home, this woman is typical of the average Briton. Not even nuisance raids by enemy bombers can shake British confidence in eventual Allied victory. With all Africa conquered and Nazi Europe trembling before the threat of Allied invasion, she knows that it's only a matter of time 'til the Axis surrenders unconditionally. The German air force flew over England again tonight (May 23) in more than a "nuisance" raid. Bombing and strafing two coastal resort towns, Nazi bombers carried out one of the worst raids since the Battle of Britain.
