We Will Remember Them

This is a photograph of a large glass plate at the RAF Duxford airfield in Cambridgeshire, England, now part of the Imperial War Museum. The plate is one of a number which form a perimeter at the rear of the American Museum building. The plates have etched on them a representation of each American aircraft that took off from airfields in Britain and was lost on operational sorties. There are around 7000 aircraft represented in the display.
