It's time we gave something to those who gave everything
The RAF Bomber Command Memorial will finally pay a public debt of gratitude to the 55,573 aircrew who lost their lives in World War II defending us against the oppression of the Nazis. All volunteers, they took to the skies knowing the odds they faced, but did so anyway. To raise much needed funds for this memorial the RAF Bomber Command Time Capsule allows you to leave your personal tribute to those who gave everything for us: http://www.bombercommand.com/timecapsule
