Ground crews run and aircraft take off

Mechanics in overalls and soldiers in field caps run in all directions across a tarpaulin covered with tool boxes and parts; beneath the wing of an aircraft two officers in peaked caps and leather coats, one saluting, look out over the field; two single-engined aircraft with fixed undercarriages lift off from a grass airfield. German newsreel footage of the opening of the German offensive in the west, 10 May 1940.
