Air Chief Marshal Sir Keith Park

Post by phoenixegmh » Mon Nov 16, 2009 1:04 pm

Folks,

As some of you may know, there was a statue erected on the fourth plinth in Trafalgar Square of Air Chief Marshal Sir Keith Park GCB, KBE, MC & Bar, DFC, OC 11 Group during the Battle Of Britain.

Saw an excellent article written by Clive James about this wartime figure on the BBC site the other day and thought I'd share it with you.
