This is a great story and some excellent research. Do you think it might now be possible to find the cameraman or the archive?

Hard to say. I just posted that the sequence is in the new Churchill docu-drama that Netflix just launched. I am going to send them a note and see what they know…. Not holding my breath, but you never know.

Most welcome. Finding authors of images with no title or stamp/signature is so often a challenge. It is fun when you actually can connect the dots.

Thank you. I got lucky, both finding the print and figuring out where it came from. Now, we are still short a name of the camera man!
