Funny how it's easier to take a photo with the watch off the wrist and two hands to hold t'camera.Image

My dad passed away peacefully yesterday at 91 after many weeks of illness. He was Flight Engineer on a Lancaster during 1944/45 and was the last of his crew. So figured an aviation theme watch would be appropriate today in his memory.

@nibelb001 - a fitting tribute particular with the poppies in the background.

Thoughts with you and your family.

@nibelb001 - my condolences to you and my respects to your father, to whom we owe a huge debt for his service to our great nation. While I have no idea what he went on to do after the War, I would guess (from conversations with family veterans of the Second World War) those two years on the Lanc were among the most defining of his life. So, a fitting watch indeed to wear in his memory.

Really sorry to hear about your father, Nigel. My thoughts are with you.

I happen to be wearing this today, but it seems a very appropriate co-tribute to your dad.
