Runnymede

The Air Forces Memorial, or Runnymede Memorial, near Egham, Surrey is a memorial dedicated to 20,456 men and women from air forces of the British Empire who were lost in air and other operations during World War II. Those recorded have no known grave anywhere, and many were lost without trace. The name of each of these airmen and airwomen is engraved into the stone walls of the memorial, according to country and squadron. Visiting is of course a very sombre experience.
