James Field's Leckie's First

A painting by my late father, James Field. He was an artist and illustrator with a passion for history. Below is the accompanying text he wrote at the time:

During a reconnaissance flight on 14th May 1917 Flight Commander Robert Leckie and his crew destroyed Zeppelin L22 near Terschelling in their RNAS Curtiss H12. Leckie was later credited with a second Zeppelin in August 1918 flying as gunner to Major Egbert Cadbury.
