Battle of Britain Day

Post by forthbridge »

HI all,

Mentioned in another post that today is BoB day, sadly not seemingly very newsworthy :-(

So as a little remembrance to those we all owe so very much to, I've uploaded some BBMF shots from this years' RIAT.

Cheers Jim ;-)

They remembered over at Alpha too as one of the guys posted a nice screenie of He 111's being bounced by a pair of Spits. It does make you wonder how long it'll be before it's completely forgotten though :-(

I remember us always getting taught about BoB at School at this time of year, something I believe doesn't happen now.

Still - it was one part of education I liked.... ;-)
