100 years of the RAF
Pictured are pilots of 203 Squadron looking on as ground personnel service the engine of one of the squadrons Nieuport Nightjar fighters whilst detached to Gallipoli, Turkey, in 1922.
Turkish troops entered the Allied controlled demarcation zone around Gallipoli and encamp at Chanak. Allied governments are determined to prevent Turkey occupying Chanak and reinforcements, including a number of Royal Air Force (RAF) units, are rushed to the area.
Elements from Nos. 4, 25, 56, 203 207, 208, and 267 Squadrons are formed into the Constantinople Wing, which supports the garrison until the crisis is settled in August 1923.
