My Remembrance Day Memory: Meeting a WW2 bomber crewIn my public school days, I didn’t have hockey or baseball trading cards; I had Second World War cards of fighter and bomber planes and all the horrible stuff associated with war. But there was a huge four-engine bomber — an Avro Lancaster X — in the far side of the Second World War section that caught my fancy. I sat in there during the war years!”The elderly gentlemen were the last living bomber crew. The Canada Aviation Museum, upon request, jumped at the chance to get a picture of the last remaining bomber crew still intact and still alive. That’s my Remembrance Day memory and one I’ll always treasure.
