”Welcome Home”
Victory in Europe Day, generally known as VE Day or V-E Day, or simply as V-Day, is a day celebrating the formal acceptance by the Allies of World War II of Nazi Germany's unconditional surrender of its armed forces on the 8 May 1945.
In the back ground: The Hurricane played a decisive role in the Battle of Britain and went on to fly on more fronts than any other British fighter. Often eclipsed in the popular imagination by the Spitfire, the Hurricane was likely the most versatile single seat fighter to emerge from the Second World War. The Museum's replica Mk II Hurricane is in the colours of the aircraft of Flying Officer, later Wing Commander, B.D. “Dal” Russel, DSO, DFC and Bar.
