I think we owe a lot to Spitfires and their pilots, Grandma70s

Happy Birthday to Colonel Tom

Something he has just acknowledged Grandma70s. He has seen these aircraft flying in anger as well as in peace.
I hope Capt/Colonel Tom doesn't catch a cold!
Happy Birthday Tom ?

Well done Tom! ( a colonel now I believe)

He is receiving a hand delivered birthday card from the Queen. I had visions of her coming herself but I suppose not possible grin

A very 'Happy Birthday' Captain Tom

I don’t think Spitfires should be celebrated. They are killing machines, like all weapons of war. I’m glad we weren’t invaded by Nazis, but I don’t want to dwell on how it was done.

As a wartime child I thought Spitfires were enemy planes, because the name is so horrible.

An honorary title and a spitfire fly past. Great. Good news is not before time.

I hope he has a lovely day, I've just watched how some of the money he has raised is being spent in the wards.
Well done!
