During WW2 - NOT amateur radio

During WW2 my dad was a Pathfinder flying Lancasters. 

He often flew night raids over enemy territory and must have been so scared and brave. 

He talked very little about the war. He was lucky to survive and died quietly in 1987. 

This photo was taken quickly from the Mall flypast today from the TV screen. They we celebrating the 80th anniversary of VE day.
