So the few left who actually served in Bomber command here in Canada get a bar and recognition? To bad they were looked at as criminals for the past 7 decades by many, most having died already

Only someone who has congenital and cognitive defects, and hasn't had to risk their life for their freedoms would view them as criminals.

Very cool! Using aluminum recovered from the Handley Page Halifax III bomber that was shot down over Belgium in May 1944 is a nice touch. Too bad uncle didn't live long enough to get his bar.

The RAF Command with the highest loss of life in WW2. In a total war, they gave their lives in the fight against evil.

Exactly. Those guys and the men and women on the ground who fought in that war saved the world and any JO crackpot who want to think of them a criminals needs to be in a mental ward.
