Some WWII Polish History - 303 Squadron in the The Battle of Britain

[roberth]

More history to learn about, video is about 50 minutes.

As I'm also on this 303 Squadron kick to commemorate the start of WWII 78 years ago, I thought I would share this old Friday Flyby from three years ago. Yes, it's about the Poles and yes, I was rather happy with the way that particular Friday Flyby turned out. The Battle of Britain was an important milestone in the war, it deflected Hitler and his thugs to the East, where the Russians tore them apart. The West survived and survives still. If only barely.

When you see a Pole, thank them. They may save us again someday. I believe that the spiritual descendants of King Jan would love to pitch into the heathens again.

That was very interesting. I love reading (and watching) about that stuff.

Very cool, I have been interested in The Battle of Britain since Jr. High. I really liked the movie with real period aircraft. The German planes were actually part of Spain's air force at the time of production and the ME 109's had Merlin engines.
