A Precious Life, His Duty Done
More than 8,000 Bomber Command airmen lost their lives before ever reaching a front-line squadron, the vast majority in flying accidents while training. Their sacrifice is often overlooked, yet it was every bit as real as that of those who flew operations over occupied Europe.
In this Remembrance episode, Steve Darlow visits the former RAF Steeple Morden and nearby Bassingbourn cum Kneesworth Cemetery to explore the human stories behind these sobering statistics. Standing where young Commonwealth airmen once trained on Vickers Wellingtons, he tells the stories of Canadian airman Fred Houston and Australian pilot Bruce Thompson, whose lives ended, on the night of 21/22 July 1941, before they reached the front line. While Fred had crossed the Atlantic to serve, Bruce had travelled literally halfway around the world from Australia to fight in a European war.
Recorded on location and accompanied by the sounds of the countryside they once knew, this episode is a tribute to those whose precious lives were given in the service of duty.
