Nicely done!

If you’re ever in the UK and looking for a more in depth and personal account of the Battle of Britain, I’d recommend the BoB museum at Hawkinge. A fantastic little museum, crammed full of letters, memorabilia and artefacts. A really fascinating place to visit; you could spend all day reading over the battle accounts, correspondence and assorted other period articles.

Photography isn’t permitted, but speaking on a personal level, it doesn’t bother me. Most of the aircraft are replicas – the focus there is really the more intimate side of the battle.

It’s only up the road from the BoB memorial at Capel-le-Ferne, so you can quite easily do both in the same day.
