"The Shepherd" by Mike O'Neal. This painting brings to life the work done by No. 3 Wing, the RNAS first attempt at a strategic bombing force. During the Wing's most famous action, the 12 October 1916 raid on the Mauser Works at Oberndorf, future Canadian ace, Raymond Collishaw, in a two-seat Sopwith 1 1/2 Strutter "fighter" tries in vain to protect F/S/L Butterworth's single-seat bomber version of the Strutter from an attack by a Fokker D.II flown by Ludwig Hanstein. The operations of No.3 Wing are examined in considerable detail by Bob Pearson in this issue.
