Famous WW2 Quote
"You ask, what is our aim? I can answer in one word. It is victory. Victory at all costs. Victory in spite of all terrors. Victory, however long and hard the road may be, for without victory there is no survival."Winston Churchill

The contributor ad-libbed the caption, which is incorrect. The manufacturer was not "staging a training session". There was no training occurring here. This was simply a Public Relations photo-shoot and the manufacturer was showing the use of the new design, or if you wioll, they were "staging a demonstration". Also, it is not a "modified L-5B". It is an L-5B in stock form and hasn't been modified. In fact it is the prototype L-5B which was a modification of the original L-5 design.
