"I remember one night sitting in the control tower . . . watching . . . bombers take off . . . Not only could I see them take off, but I could hear their [pilots’] voices — young, brash, frightened and confident. Their voices told a story that was an important part of what I was seeing."

— Albert Cloutier, official war artist, Second World War
