EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the awe-inspiring sight of a Harrier GR7A soaring through the skies above the rugged mountain ranges of Afghanistan. The image showcases the sheer power and agility of this remarkable aircraft as it embarks on a mission amidst breathtaking natural beauty. In 2004, during a critical period in Afghanistan's history, a dedicated team from RAF Cottesmore and other UK units were deployed to Kandahar Airfield. Their mission? To provide unwavering support to the International Security Assistance Force (ISAF) and various Coalition Force elements operating in theater. As we gaze upon this photograph, we are transported to that very moment when Wg Cdr Bruce Hedley skillfully captured this iconic scene. The Harrier GR7A cuts through the clear blue sky with precision, its sleek silhouette contrasting against the jagged peaks below. This juxtaposition serves as a reminder of both man's technological prowess and nature's untamed grandeur. The mountains stand tall and proud, their majestic presence serving as an ever-present backdrop for those who bravely serve in these challenging terrains. It is within these unforgiving landscapes that our armed forces demonstrate their unwavering commitment to upholding peace and security. Wg Cdr Bruce Hedley's photograph encapsulates not only the spirit of flight but also pays tribute to all those who have selflessly served their countries in pursuit of global stability.
