"Critical Foundations" - WWII Airfields

[Doering]

Been busy making another video on a different WWII perspective: Abandoned airfields and the dedication of thousands who built and maintained the airfields during WWII. You can view it here:

That is wonderful work, Doering.

It was an interesting video, Doering.
One third of all Bomber Command aircrew were Canadians.

"Many members of the RCAF served in Royal Air Force squadrons."

To create awareness and preserve the historical heritage and significance of airfield construction at the time of WWII, I made this video a few months ago.

Great job, Doering!

I wish someone had done/would do the same for the RCAF's wartime Commonwealth Air Training Plan which had a HUGE impact on our, allied, victory and on rural Canada.

(P.S. That's an interesting version of Debussy's Girl With Flaxen Hair - works well in your context.)
