MALTA – GEORGE CROSS – Double Remarque (Secondary Market Copy)
by Robert Taylor

Commemorating the 60th Anniversary of the Battle of Malta

Pilot Officer John Bisley of 126 Squadron in combat with Me 109s from JG-53 during one of the intense aerial air battles over Valetta in April 1942. Between the summer of 1940 and the end of 1942, Malta became one of the most bombed places on earth. The RAF’s desperate fight to retain control of the diminutive Mediterranean island, and the defiant courage of the people of Malta, is one of the epic stories of World War Two.
