O znamenitosti
Hitre informacije: Mednarodni center poveljstva bombnikov stoji na mestu, ki je bilo nekoč del RAF Canwick Hill, radarske postaje med drugo svetovno vojno. Njegov osupljiv 31 metrov visok spominski stolp je popolnoma poravnan tako, da kaže neposredno na vzletno stezo bližnjega RAF Scampton, kjer je bila nameščena znamenita eskadrilja Dambusters.
Poudarki: Postavite se v središče spominskega zidu in videli boste imena 57.861 padlih letalcev iz vsega Commonwealtha, vrezana v kamen; to število je enako skupnim izgubam bombniškega poveljstva. Senca stolpa čez dan drsi po imenih, namerno zasnovana tako, da se vsakega imena v določenem trenutku dotakneta tema in svetloba.
Notranji nasveti
- Visit the Peace Garden behind the main building for a quiet reflective space most visitors rush past.
- Bring binoculars or a zoom lens to read the higher panels of the memorial wall from the viewing platform.
- The cafe serves excellent Lincolnshire sausages and locally sourced fare, worth planning a meal around.
- Check the website before visiting as the site occasionally closes for private ceremonies and commemorative events.
