I went to yesterdays battle of Britain show at Duxford. There were two simulated dogfights, Spitfires and Hurricanes against Messerschmidts 109s. Then there was a dogfight of world war 1 planes. All pretty impressive stuff.

When the planes landed I was two hundred yards from a 109, black cross and all, and a symbol of evil under the cockpit. Amazingly, Hitler was an artist, the artistry of Nazi planes, uniforms, tanks etc were a work of art. Even giving speeches. How can a man, able to see beauty in art then go and destroy beautiful things?.

As always, where there are humans there is trouble, it lays waste wherever it goes. The eternal battle, that must be waged throughout the Universe, good v evil, or is it growing pains?

Even today, we fight the same battle against the dictatorial east, trying vainly to keep freedom alive.

The beast never dies. It retreats to gather strength, to attack again. Chin up, be grateful for what you have.
