Born Hunter 17,956 Posted March 20, 2013 Report Share Posted March 20, 2013 Was within spitting distance on my lunch break today so I had to take a look; Though they had to wait nearly 70yrs for the memorial, it was worth it. Just thought some might be interested. 11 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Outlaw Pete 2,224 Posted March 20, 2013 Report Share Posted March 20, 2013 BH; I'm taking it you've got ~ or at least heard ~ the Radio 4 production of the Len Deighton novel, " Bomber " ? Without doubt, simply the best drama adaptation I've ever heard over a radio Quote Link to post Share on other sites
RubyTex 1,957 Posted March 20, 2013 Report Share Posted March 20, 2013 Should be more things by way of celebration/memorial/teaching in schools for what these lads and lasses did, would the youth of today have the grit or the bollocks to go over the top of a trench with a line of machine guns waiting on the other side? Or fly a night raid over occupied France or Germany getting shot to bits by anti aircraft fire with a high chance you wouldn't be going home that night? I doubt it. Real heroes.
