Catalogue of Memorials to fallen WW2 Airmen.

This site is intended to become a comprehensive catalogue of Air Force Memorials in the UK relating to World War 2, however it is currently UNDER CONSTRUCTION, and probably always will be. All Counties under current survey are listed in the main menu. Click on the thumbnails for a full view.

Welcome to this Catalogue of Memorials to fallen WW2 Airmen.

This site will eventually be (I hope) a catalogue of all the UK memorials to the (Allied) aircrew who died during World War 2.

I can't find a single comprehensive list, so I'm making one myself, and as you have to start somewhere and I live in Bomber County (AKA Lincolnshire,) I've started my catalogue there.  Note that memorials only appear that I've visited in person.

When I began searching the Country I was expecting to find RAF memorials, but soon realised that there are also USAAF, RCAF, RAAF, Polish Air Force and so on; I figure it was all one conflict and so I'm listing them all in one place. 

You'll see a few Luftwaffe sites and graves too; despite everything I feel about the instigators of the conflict, I can't help feeling sorrow for the ordinary fighting men who died over a foreign country.

I would like help; please tell me about any memorials I've missed in any of the Counties I've covered, and I'll get out to them and take some photos as soon as I can. 

I'm intending to work down and up the East Coast first, but I'll certainly get round the rest eventually.  And note that churches are driving me nuts as, sadly, they are hardly ever open.

Thanks for your help, enjoy the site.

Robin Ellis.
