This is from a collection of RAF aerial photographs of strategic bombings and raids through German-occupied Europe from March-August 1944, during or directly following the Allied invasion of northern France and German retreat.

This specific photograph shows the Aerial bombing (RAF) of Soesterberg air base in the Netherlands. During Germany's blitzkrieg in 1940, the Netherlands was overrun in five days, and Soesterberg air base occupied by the German Luftwaffe in May 1940.

As the air base was most successful and strategic for the German war effort, Soesterberg became a target of Allied bombings throughout the war. By September 1940 (a month following the bombing seen in this photograph), the Germans deemed the airfield useless.
