Wow, what a find,to think of the amount of debris from crashed planes etc across Europe, especially Lancs, and then to be able to identify where this particular one was lost is amazing. Great clip.
How I wish had had spent more time with the numerous Dutch folks in our area, Van Reit, Bahooslav, VanWyck, Kempenaar Hoogendorn. They all came to Aquidneck Island and founded plant flower nursery's. Thank you for sharing. Narragansett Bay.
After the sacrifice of so many British airmen and soldiers for the Dutch and many died just trying to feed the people of Holland, its sad to see and hear no support from the Dutch people for this country in the brexit negotiations, I'm an ex British serviceman and patriot, I appreciate your reverence for the crew of this plane and their sacrifice, but when we could do with some help from the Dutch?? Freedom and democracy, that's what they died defending, 🇬🇧🇬🇧
before the US entered the war. He flew 30 sorties. God must have been with him, he always brought his crew and the Lancaster back to his Lincolnshire base. The plane was not always in 1 piece but every crew member came home. They called him “The Yank”, a common monicker for Americans.
Love these old FILM clips where the propellers are invisible as the haul a heavy bomber into the sky. In todays digital world props are usually just idling, some even revving BACKWARDS.
Brother Maynard Try Don Charnwood....No Moon Tonight. You can even find videos on UA-cam , reminiscing at his old base near Hull. The number of WW2 airfields in the UK is staggering. There is recognition, but it's not shouted from the rooftops. The Dutch, as this video shows , have not forgotten. This video is very powerful.
@@californiadreamin8423 Mate, their final wartime base was Waddington in Lincolnshire (Bomber County) from Nov 1943. Here are some wartime facts about this Squadron, they flew 314 operations on Lancaster's, suffered 104 lost in action, that works out to around three lost on every operation. They were also the operator of one of the most famous wartime Lancaster's with over 100 operations R5868 S for Sugar with the famous quote from Herman Goering on her nose.
Geoffrey Young Thanks for that. I often use Google maps to check up on airfields.....a lot of them can be located by their peri tracks, crop marks, odd buildings and bits of runways. Are you in Oz ?
34.5k views & only 159👍🏼 before mine. That's just lazy, show your appreciation for the Airmen or the ones trying to preserve the past. If not, then maybe for the people who put together videos, for others to watch. It doesn't cost you anything.
Thank you. God bless all air men who lost their lives. R.I.E.P. 🇩🇪🇬🇧

Well... these folks are from Belgium... Our southern (Flamish) neighbours speak Dutch with a Belgian flavour. 🙂
That Engine should go to the Australian War Museum with a plaque honouring all the Aussies who were killed in the crash.
For ONCE A FITTING musical accompaniment for a sombre moment.
Très beau travail de recherche et de mémoire bravo aux équipes de recherche
One of the Lancasters in the first clip is Just Jane with Jane shown astride a bomb and is from 57 Squadron based at East Kirkby.

Have you carried on with the excavation? I hope so. 👍🇬🇧.
My father in law, who was a Lancaster Pilot, flew this sortie. He was an American that had gone to Canada to support the RAF bef
before the US entered the war. He flew 30 sorties. God must have been with him, he always brought his crew and the Lancaster back to his Lincolnshire base. The plane was not always in 1 piece but every
crew member came home. They called him “The Yank”, a common monicker for Americans.
Europe thanks your father-in-law!!!
The sound of the Lancaster was music to the oppressed Dutch people

Avro Lancaster B Mk.1 LL792 belonging to 467 Squadron RAAF, lost (Bourg Leopold) 11/12 May 1944, with 145 hrs flying time on the airframe.
Thanks for the info. Brings it home to us Australians. Still too little recognition given to Australian airmen in Europe both here and abroad.
Geoffrey Young Where were they based ?

Maybe it's the language. Not everyone understands Flemish.
Outsmider met twee eggs, als u blieft. (I speak double Dutch you know)..
Drop the weird music
Beautiful and fitting music.
