Pause for a moment to remember Captain Noel Chavasse VC, who died at age 32.🕯️🇬🇧 Noel was a British Army officer, a British medical doctor, and an Olympic athlete. He performed acts of heroism during the Battle of Guillemont and Passchendaele to earn him the Victoria Cross twice.

Two Suffolk farmers living next to a former bomber base used GPS to draw the shadow of a B-17 Flying Fortress onto one of their fields that lay under the base' former flight path, then ploughed it with a tractor to create this striking temporary artwork! 🙌 📸 Downed Warbirds

This dog's name was Gunner. My uncle brought him back from WW2. He was raised and slept under my uncle's anti- aircraft gun. The gun crew shared their rations to feed him. By the time he was 18 months old, my uncle said he would stand up and look at the sky. If he laid back down

When visiting Ranville Cemetery it’s always emotional to see people have left dog toys on the grave of Private Emile Corteil, who died alongside his military dog, Glen. Both parachuted into Normandy. Their bodies were found still attached by Glen’s lead. They’re buried together.

"The most dangerous were the first and last five trips. During the whole war, 51% of aircrew were killed on operations, 12% were killed or wounded in non-operational accidents and 13% became prisoners of war or evaders. Only 24% survived the war unscathed." #WW2 #HISTORY
