Watton Memorial Vandalised
Having just spent a day at an airfield in north west norfolk, I thought I'd stop at Watton on the way home. I thought it would be nice to see the memorials in the new positions, they have only just recently be re-dedicated as well.
The Blenheim Propellor was nice to see in the new position and it looked as thought it has been given a protective coating.
Then we crossed to the other side and couldn't believe what we saw, what has the world come to? I was speachless.
Norfolk - RAF Watton
There is a thread running on this here as well; http://airfieldinformationexchange.f...t995.html#5285

I'am not surprised. A result of the softly, softly approach to school discipline, loss of parental control and crass material values over the last twenty five years which is getting worse not better.

I deplore what has been done. However, I am not really surprised.In the past couple of years how many memorials, both to the fallen and to civilians (in graveyards), have been defiled?
It seems that today there is no respect for the dead.
