Sad to hear of the passing of Group Captain John Hemingway, the last surviving pilot from The Battle of Britain. As great as it is to see Spitfires and Hurricanes flying today it is easy to overlook the role they and pilots like John Hemingway undertook back in 1940 in defending our shores. They did us proud and most did not have the long life of John Hemingway who reached 105. Respect to them all.
RIP and thank you for all you did for us.
