Don't get me started, I used to organise Armed forces events in Devon up to 2018, then Covid and old age/ infirmity took it's toll on our association. We interviewed veterans post 1945 before they died or got dementia, displaying around 1500 personal photos. With captions or stories, plus sourced equipment featured, we put on an exhibition covering British, WW2,WW1 and Cold war era items and kit, we didn't cover too much conflict but the artefacts we have are really good. Upto 2500 school pupils attended our exhibitions, along with military personnel and 2-3000 members of the public. Our issues came from Remoaners and lefty liberal teachers, who quite frankly were proved to be disgusting creatures. Promoting war, baby killing and racism was often thrown at us

Frederick Manuel Mifflin was a Canadian born in Newfoundland. He was 21 years old. For a long time he felt uncomfortable in the RAF, in a foreign country. Every mission was a monstrous stress. He was even briefly suspended from flying to deal with the strain. He found friends and support from the members of his crew to whom he was deeply attached. The race with the Germans in radar technology made night bombing either relatively safe or completely suicidal. Unlike the Americans who fought in daylight, the Lancasters could not help each other. Each was on his own and could only hear on the radio the cries of comrades dying in the darkness.

A truly amazing story of bravery. It’s similar to the RAF Bomber Command VC received by Flt Sgt John Hannah, a Glaswegian, in 1940. My own father was also from Glasgow and in Bomber Command. He had the same surname and was frequently embarrassed when people thought he was the recipient of the V.C.! My father flew Wellingtons, Blenheims and other aircraft, but he was eventually shot down in an Avro Manchester while returning from laying mines in Kiel Canal.

I can see where the Devs of Bomber Crew got the inspiration for that. Also, seeing this in the game (while repairing an engine) I thought: >> Yeah sure as if anyone was crazy enough to do something like crawling out onto the wing and fix up the engine

This KZbin Video is completely erroneous. The Official Report was that during his attempt to reach the fire between the two engines he LOST the fire extinguisher he had tucked into his vest, therefore he was unable to extinguish the wing fire and due to burnt hands and further gunshot wounds received, he was swept off the wing and parachuted to the ground where he was captured by the Germans and remained in a hospital bed for 10 months before being interred in a German POW Camp. Upon allied liberation at the end of the war, he received the Victoria Cross Medal for his self sacrifice and gallant attempt of extinguishing the fire. The witnesses to his action ( other crew members ) who had witnessed his actions resulting in the awarding of his VC in late 1945. Incidentally the Liberator crashed and both the Tail Gunner and Pilot died in the crash. KZbin sadly just had to embellish his story by saying he EXTINGUISHED the wing fire. SHAME ON KZbin ! ...

Thank you for telling this story - in my honest opinion Miff deserved a VC too, for staying with his friend. I think I first heard of this as a child when it appeared on the front of 'Victor' comic; either this or the other 'wing walking' VC, which someone else refers to in the comments. You have to be brave to keep living at times. What we call 'heroes' are, quite simply, ordinary people who do extraordinary things - and there are more of us out there, who would probably do the same if we got the chance, than we often realise..

The quality of your videos has improved absurd amounts over the last few years. I just want to say how much joy it has brought me to see you guys improve.

These videos are better than most movies. The amount of effort in the script, the animations, the sound effects, etc... is amazing!

The graphic make me wanna cry there so good this has to be the biggest buff in history

[@joperhop]

the way you "like comment subsribe" has to be the best, so much better than randomly being put in, and of course, a great way to plug your other videos at the end.

[@jukemastr]

Your animation is so incredible, and it keeps getting better! keep up the great work!

[@flyntprins8097]

apart from the amazing storytelling and mindblowing animation, the way you also manage to flawlessly plug another video, transition into a sponsor or the subtle 'like' and 'subscribe' on the one round flying towards the bomber. its brilliant and so well thought through. I often find myself with chills when watching your videos.
