Description
English: Denmark After Liberation, 1945
Guard of honour provided by members of the Royal Air Force Regiment and men of the local Danish Resistance at the ceremony in a forest clearing at Maarum, north of Copenhagen, to unveil a memorial to Flight Lieutenant R H Thomas and Flying Officer G J Allin who died when their Mosquito aircraft crashed at the site in September 1944. The memorial commemorated these two airmen and the work of the Royal Air Force in dropping arms and equipment to Danish resistance fighters who operated from the nearby forest. The memorial was raised by donations from local villagers and former members of the Danish resistance.

This tag is designed for use where there may be a need to assert that any enhancements (eg brightness, contrast, colour-matching, sharpening) are in themselves insufficiently creative to generate a new copyright. It can be used where it is unknown whether any enhancements have been made, as well as when the enhancements are clear but insufficient. For known raw unenhanced scans you can use an appropriate {{PD-old}} tag instead. For usage, see Commons:When to use the PD-scan tag.


Note: This tag applies to scans and photocopies only. For photographs of public domain originals taken from afar, {{PD-Art}} may be applicable. See Commons:When to use the PD-Art tag.
