I spent that Sunday at Melbourne, North Yorkshire. Here is the site of the 10 Squadron Memorial,and the old wartime airfield. The Squadron sent a group and the Colour Party. For the rest: we were ex Squadron members with ages from 92 to the great/great granddaughter (aged 2)of a war time pilot. Very moving.

ReplyDeleteHow lovely, John.
ReplyDeletePerfectly summed up by the great, great grand-daughter (aged 2) coming to pay her respects, together with the 92-year-old doing likewise.
We shall remember them.
