Summary
Malta- No Time to Lose - Soldier Dockers unloading a Convoy during a Raid
image: A daylight scene of frantic dockside activity. Helmeted dockworkers on the left take hold of a swinging load of
white sacks being unloaded from the side of a merchant ship in the background. Several sacks are strewn around their feet. On the right
another soldier hauls on a rope, guiding a loading net full of boxes down towards a second team of dockers. In the centre stands a figure,
stripped to the waist, issuing orders. Puffs of smoke from anti-aircraft fire can be seen in the sky, upper left.
Large WWII photograph collection made with aid of image recognition.
