Luftwaffe

80 days ago

Just 36% of Brits Under 40 know what the Battle of Britain was and when it happened, I despair

According to a survey commissioned by the Tory Robert Jenrick just 36% of those under 40 were able to say that this was the contest between the Luftwaffe and the RAF when never was so much owed by so many to so few. My great uncle Peter Wood was a decorated Spitfire Pilot, as I detailed in my family history in WW2, and my son Joshua, 9 today, can tell you about what happened in the skies over Southern England in 1940.
