R.A.F Kenley's Hardest Day in the Battle of Britain, and the nearby graves that tell the story

Описание к видео R.A.F Kenley's Hardest Day in the Battle of Britain, and the nearby graves that tell the story

Before what we now remember as "Battle of Britain Day" (15th September 1940), came "The Hardest Day". This occurred on 18th August 1940 and earned its name because more aircraft were destroyed on that day, on both sides, than any other. R.A.F Kenley, a prime target for the German Luftwaffe, took a terrible beating. Many of those who died were buried in a nearby churchyard, where their military graves remain beautifully maintained. This video shows the site and explains its unbreakable bond with Kenley Airfield.
