INTERNATIONAL BOMBER COMMAND CENTRE, LINCOLN, LINCOLNSHIRE

“Bomber Command are the forgotten heroes of the Battle of Britain. They flew every night, in dangerous and unequal missions, to hit the Luftwaffe’s airfields in northern France. The casualties were absolutely extraordinary. They fought with extreme bravery, on sometimes hopeless missions over the Continent, doing their best to disrupt the German attacks before they were launched. The Spire and Walls of Names at IBCC is a very moving place. And it’s mostly outside, so perfect for summer.” internationalbcc.co.uk
