discussion Memorial picture thread....

[Guest]

A little while back someone asked for a picture of a war memorial in London, i've tried to find the thread but not having much luck doing so, anyone care to point me in the direction of it or refresh my puny memory as to the memorial they wanted a photograph of??

Tis not a problem, have actually passed it twice, both times on foot too, within the past fortnight. However both times were unexpected and alas had no camera with me. Need to be in the vicinity again either tomorrow or friday so will make sure i have the camera with me.

Steeple Morden Memorial

Two photos of the 355th FG memorial at Steeple Morden. The airfield is back to agriculture but some of the buildings still survive. Worth while visiting.

Its a fantastic thing to see. We went to duxford and stayed overnight at a B&B in Bassinbourne. I had seen pic of the memorial in Flypast and talked the wife into driving to see it. The Memorial had been extended only a few weeks before to incorperate all the names of the people who had died whilst serving from there , both USAAF and RAF. The prop came from a derlict P51D from Israel.

 

[Guest]

nice!!! its annyoing i go past duxford every day, yet i have not been in about 12 years!!! i plan to go there very soon, especially now they have had a refurb!!!

 

[Guest]

Its not finished yet. I was down in jan with my mate and a lot of aircraft were not on public view.The refurb looks good though.

 

[Guest]

yea i remember when they did the "green and creamish" one, that looked really moder then. compared to that now this new one looks like an alien mother ship!!!
