Spitfire MK Vc EE602 was built by Westland in Yeovil, Somerset in September 1942 and was fitted with a Rolls Royce Merlin 46 engine.
Now part of the Biggin Hill Heritage Hanger.
Seen at the IWM Duxford, this aircraft departed along with a number of other historic aircraft. The Goodwood Revival meeting was taking place the same day so perhaps that was where they were heading.
VC Tower once controlled the tracks leading out of Portland Union Station in Oregon, now it serves as a shed for a MAX light rail control point. Its nice to see an older railroad structure spruced up and given a purpose after the tower was closed, instead of tearing it down.

On 17 September 1944, Lt Grayburn emplaned for Arnhem. From the evening of 17 September until the night of 20 September, a period of over three days, Lt Grayburn, a platoon commander, 2nd Parachute Battalion, led his men with supreme gallantry and determination at Arnhem Bridge.
Although in pain and weakened by wounds to his face and back, his courage never flagged. There is no doubt that, had it not been for this officer's inspiring leadership and personal bravery Arnhem Bridge could never have been held for that time. Lt Grayburn died during the night of 20 September, aged 26 years old. For his gallantry at Arnhem, he was awarded the Victoria Cross.
His body was recovered from a ruined building in 1948 and is now buried at Oosterbeek War Cemetery.

On 12th May 1917 near Bullecourt, France, Lieutenant Moon's immediate objective was a position in advance of a hostile trench, and then against the trench itself, after the capture of which it was intended that his men should co-operate in a further assault. Although wounded in the initial advance, he reached the first objective, but was again wounded in the assault on the trench. He nevertheless continued to inspire and encourage his men and captured the trench, but was again wounded when consolidating the position. It was not until he was severely wounded for a fourth time that he agreed to retire from the fight.
