an excellent idea Knuts... I was at RAF Cosford last night to see off a group of airmen, each with a separate t-shirt bearing the name of one of the crews, off as crew units to walk round the airfield all night while the film was projected onto one of the hangers. Some finished early as their aircraft 'went down' .. those that made the night covered around 30 miles and one chap ran and covered 50 miles.
It was very cold for the off and apparently at 3am bitter, but for flight back at 0615 was glorious with a light mist in the distance ... a fine thing to remember from 75 years ago
