Allied airmen shot down over Denmark – When Vorup was bombed
The founder of a historical website about airmen has a
lecture about Allied planes |
Anders Straarup has been a teacher at Havndal
School for 37
The material here is overwhelming and has been
recognized |
In his lecture on 1 February in the village hall of
Aalum Anders Straarup will use local events from World War II as starting
points. The bomb dropped over Vorup, the airman James Reid Bradley resting
in Randers North Cemetery, and a Lancaster which crashed near Estruplund
will be mentioned.
Other local angles also show that Danes were in a small
corner of a very great war. Nearly all 463 planes and 3,089 airmen mentioned
on AirmenDK were shot down over Denmark or Danish waters. It is important
that we remember that freedom has a price, also paid by the Allied airmen
presented on the website. Kijo |
