Thanks jan and Thudders .... Just want to remind folks too that today is the 65th anniversary of the Dambusters famous raid ....   and  register my respect in remembrance  those that paid the ultimate price on that occasion ...over 50 men I believe didnt return to RAF Scampton ..  I just saw a flypast on the news by a lone Lancaster over Derwent Water where they trained .  Wow   ...terrific

It all depends on what mark of Mossie it is and what role it was in!!!

Here's a different one...

One more charge and then be dumb,

        May the victors when they come
            Find my body near the wall.
