The brave men they are commemorating went into battle wearing RAF blue uniforms
Probably because that is what
they go into battle wearing
these days in much the same way on Remembrance Sunday the various military chiefs do not lay wreaths wearing a variety of uniforms from conflicts over the past 'x' years.
Next you'll be having a go at the colour parties for not wearing fur lined boots, Irvin flying jackets and
mae wests.....
