It seems to have been forgotten , that 80 years ago this week , until the 15th of September , RAF Fighter Command (Aircrew and Groundcrew) , were fighting at the height of the Battle of Britain.
The Spitfire was the 'iconic aircraft' of the RAF , but many more German aircraft were shot down by the' less glamourous' Hawker Hurricane than the Spitfire. The Pilots average age was 23 .
Brave men , they should be remembered, in our thoughts.
