Description
A Norton 16 H, 500 cc side valve motor cycle, with the British army registration number C4859112. The motorcycle makes a convenient table for the operational map being used by an army liaison officer (centre), who is showing the pilots of No 117 Squadron, RAF, at Hathazari, Eastern Bengal, where the ground troops want their supplies dropped. Also looking at the map are Flying Officer Don Wilson, RAAF, of Killara, NSW (left), and the Operations Officer, Flight Lieutenant Duncan Robertson, RAF of Haddington, Scotland.
