Farewell to a lost Fighter Pilot:

Having served Down Under, I was interested to see the attached earlier this evening when searching for another record:

I saw the ceremony on the news, I was very impressed
with the soldiers on display (Aust and French).
In fact, I commented to someone that it was an
impressive effort all round.
They even had a Spitfire or Hurricane do a fly past.
(the clip was too short for me to see which).
What I didn't know was his Brother was at 20,000 feet
when his brother was shot down and saw the whole thing.
