Britain's European Allies Attack in British Aircraft
A Hurricane fighter is shown above ten pilot portraits labelled Belgium, Czechoslovakia, France, Greece, Holland, Luxembourg, Norway, Poland and Yugoslavia, beside a column of national roundels and flags. The tell for bandwagon is the stacked list of allied nations offered as momentum; the roundels and flags transfer each nation's standing onto British aircraft.
