    The Shell House Raid

    A very nice short film about the famed Shell House Raid on Gestapo HQ in Copenhagen . Mosquito used to hit the Germans hard on this raid . Sadly a school house close by was hit killing many children and other civilians !

    BlueNoser352 salutes the ultimate BlueNoser !

    BlueNoser352 always when he thinks of The United Kingdom..he thinks of Bodney and where the brave men of the 352nd Fighter joined their counterparts in the RAF & Commenwealth forces in the fight to free Europe ! A tip of the cap to this brave Mustang driver from my home state of North Carolina ! Major Geroge E Preddy Jr…the Mustang Ace ! Long may his memory and that of his younger brother Bill remain in our thoughts and prayers !

    Nice to see someone still remembers their memory when I visited the grave site !

    It was nice to see someone still cared and remembered these men on the day I visited in late May 2011. BlueNose is always impressed with so many on this fine board with your individual and collective aviation knowledge..in particular
    World War II and its aviation history. I salute you and this outstanding magazine for having this forum to express our gratitude for those lost in the war and the freedoms we have today because of their brave deeds beyond words !

    Nice to see this tribute on the forum !

    Really nice to see this topic on the forum and remember those brave men lost on the mission and in the attack on the prison. BlueNoser visited this location in Amiens a few years ago on my way down to Normandy. I believe some on the forum here helped me with directions and adivce. Thanks much it was a successful mission for me that day as I wanted to honor those men lost in the raid. I have read much on this topic and the BBC Two documentary by Martin Shaw only opens more questions for many as to why the raid was flown. I Know I will offer a prayer on the date of the raid and keep it in my memory for sure. Hope your ceremony will happen and you’ll post some photos on here for all of us to share !

    A daring raid for sure flown by some might brave young men ..may they rest in peace !
