Tony Foulds as just 8 years old when he saw a World War II bomber try to land on the field he was playing on. The pilot veered away and crashed. As Mark Phillips reports, Foulds now honors the memories of the U.S. airmen who died.

What a man, a fitting tribute to 10 men who gave their lives.

[@catpainblackudder01]

Around 10,000 people turned up for the fly past, we will not forget the sacrifices our American cousins made, we will continue to honour them...

Tony was there for today's flypast, along with thousands of others. RIP those brave young airmen.

Broke my heart to see Mr Foulds waving at the USAF and RAF as they flew the missing man formation. Well done lad, and RIP Crewman. Thank you for your service.

True English gentleman just wish all men were like him the world should look at this but it wont

[@darrenkewley3879]

Glad to see that there are many other Brits who will never forget the sacrifices our American cousins made for us and the rest of Europe - let's hope we can march proudly into the future as brothers in arms.

John Humphrey, the 2nd lieutenant, was my great-great uncle. I learned from my grandmother (his great-niece) about the story yesterday. I’ve never been prouder.

It is only right that these young men should be honoured and never forgotten. They gave their lives to help liberate Europe, I hope it wasn't wasted. God bless them, we will not forget. Tedfrey UK

I met Tony last week. Lovely guy.

A real gentleman. Another era. Real heroes. Totally forgotten by our spineless political elite. Fought for freedom. Sold out to the EU.
