After 77 years: eyewitness to my father's fighter plane crash in 1943

This image with an eye witness report was published in #Iron Cross, a historical magazine in England. The eye witness, first on the scene, took bits of the perspex to make rings and broaches as souvenirs. Today the editor of the magazine has offered to give me a personal tour of the site, which he remembers from his adolescence. I am always moved by the kindness of former enemies in #World War II. It reminds me how a British airman befriended us in 1946 and I still cherish the teddy bear he gave me. There is hope for us to come together in peace, without hate and prejudice.
