Description: Pilot Officer H M Stephen tries his hand with a rivet gun, watched by Flight Lieutenant J C Mungo-Park and workers at an aircraft factory, one of a series of morale-boosting visits by RAF pilots to Ministry of Aircraft Production facilities. Both pilots served with No. 74 Squadron RAF and were veterans of the Battle of Britain; Stephen having achieved 22 victories by the end of 1940, and Mungo-Park about 11. In April 1941, Mungo-Park assumed command of No. 74 Squadron but was killed in action over France on 27 June.
