As I’m sure I mentioned on this forum a few years back, there was a TV programme in the early 80s that showed pictures of an exceptional low tide at Margate revealed wrecks of a Lancaster, Halifix, Stirling and a B17. Draw a line out to sea from the runway at Manston and I bet there are all sorts of things. What state they are in after 70 years is any bodies guess. Sadly I’m sure they wouldn’t survive being lifted even if the money were there. I’m assuming the Pprune picture is 60s?
True!
Whoever they are, whatever the motive, seems they can’t spell. Probably tells you all you need to know. Vandalism is vandalism as far as I am concerned.

RAFBF Facebook now says they cannot disclose the content of this new graffiti, but that it is not connected with the previous incident and is not religious. Curious. Still vandalism is vandalism as far as I’m concern.
This has just appeared in the last hour on their Facebook page. It’s further damage I’m afraid to say, but doesn’t specify exactly what.
Latest from Mr Higham.

Interesting interview with Les Munro here talking about his role in the raid. He lets slip that he has had a recent flight in the NZ built Mosquito. Good for him!
Looks like PLan B now according to BBC
EDL is a political organisation. H4H as a charity cannot, or should not, accept donation from political organisations. Would apply to a donation from Cons, Labs, or Libdems.
Well the suspect can’t say he didn’t know what he was spraying the graffiti on because he has a good look at the memorial first.
Some pictures of the offending graffiti being removed here
At Duxford with the Reds. Not something you see everyday.

I hope when those responsible are found and RAFBF is suitably compensated from their pockets.
