    it is sad that there seems to be no memorial to this crew there, and that the ‘grave robber’ is allowed to remove parts of the aircraft without getting prosecuted, wouldn’t it be better the remains of the wellington should be removed and placed in a museum rather than leave them to the vultures!!!, if this is done i will help with this venture if i can, i have a four wheel drive that could be used if need be., also what would it take to have a memorial there?, would it need to go through the RAF and local authority?.

    Ladyritz, are you joking 😀 , thought Dennis would be pushing up rose’s long before now!!! 😮

    more like pushing up weeds, doing to our gardens what he and his cohorts did to the British aircraft industry, car industry, engineering ect ect ect 🙁

    can anyone who knows what happened to both the aircraft and car industries inthis country even consider this notion of the worst case scenario ……… LAYLAND AEROSPACE !!!!!!!! 😮 😮 😮 (insert the being sick smilie here)

    the forgotten soldier by Guy Sager, the true story of a child of French/German parentage who was conscripted into the German army and sent to the Russian front, am about to finish this book and its well worth the read. also, i desserted Rommel by Gunther Behneman (sp?) shows why dessertion during wartime isn’t a cowards way out.
