A British World War II Hero goes to Washington!
The lovely and brilliant Barbara Saks is going to Washington D.C. to see the WWII Memorial on the first flight of "Honor Flight of Southern Colorado" in September. Barbara was with the Royal Air Force at Bletchley Park and "plotted" the aircraft, --- laid down colored arrows on the huge Sector Table Map to plot the track of the planes for the Controller on the Upper Deck to follow. She was with the RAF fighters, Spitfires and Hurricanes, and it was they, the Few, who stopped the invasion of Britain on her 23rd birthday, Sunday 15th September 1940, Battle of Britain Day. Special thanks to JANE H.RODGERS- new Founder of the Honor Flights of Southern Colorado, a friend and promoter of all WWII/Korean War Veterans! Congratulations to Barbara and thank you Jane Rogers for your dedication and love of our wonderful Greatest Generation.
