a moving meeting in memory of a RAF pilot;
Do you remember that I was looking for the son of RAF Mustang pilot who was killed in August 1943 in North Brittany ?
See: http://forum.12oclockhigh.net/showthread.php?t=22071 I finally managed to find him, he came last month to the exact place where his father was KIA. He was there with his whole family (13 persons) and he met a witness aged 86 who was able to tell him what happened exactly. Then, a ceremony took place in the nearby village with officials: A memorial was unveiled in front of him and it was a strong and moving moment. This should be related in july "Flypast".
