hi there
thanks so much for sharing that link, it was very moving and brought me to tears, my father and grandfather both service in the RAF, and my dad worked on the battle of britain flight, so the spits hold a special meaning for me,
thanks again

Great video! Surely an emotional moment for this brave man who always flew alone and unarmed over enemy territory.
Thanks for sharing this with us, Fred.
