| The Kamper Crew's mugs were finally buried at Deenethorpe this morning.<br/> See [http://www.sj-r.com/bakke/x1520844855/Dave-Bakke-Saga-of-World-War-II-B-17-crew-will-end-in-England|HERE] for the background story.<br/> An oak tree was planted nearby, along with a commemorative marker:<br/> <br/> <img class='ForumMaxImgWidth' src='http://i89.photobucket.com/albums/k227/ramc181/Tree1.jpg' /><br/> <br/> Film crews from the BBC and ITV were there to record the occasion, along with other members of the press, British Legion, MVT and a number of other interested parties.<br/> <br/> Joan Parker, widow of tail gunner Tom Parker, with Graham Bratley:<br/> <br/> <img class='ForumMaxImgWidth' src='http://i89.photobucket.com/albums/k227/ramc181/newscrews.jpg' /><br/> <br/> I'll try to get some better photos up later, my camera kept packing up throughout the event and these were the only two that were saved.<br/> <br/> All the best,<br/> Paul <br/><br/>Paul Bellamy<br/> <img class='ForumMaxImgWidth' src='/public/Attachments/ForumNew.MainPage/resource1.png' /><br/>

| Ta Jean.<br/> <br/> Local Anglia News video: [http://www.itv.com/anglia/ww2-tankard-tradition04687/|HERE]<br/> <br/> Hopefully it will work outside the UK, BBC ones tend not to but this is from an independent channel.<br/> <br/> All the best,<br/> Paul <br/><br/>Paul Bellamy<br/> <img class='ForumMaxImgWidth' src='/public/Attachments/ForumNew.MainPage/resource1.png' /><br/>

| TV News Video update.<br/> <br/> The BBC 1 Look East broadcast which covered the event was only available for 24 hours, and has now been removed from the BBC iPlayer system.<br/> The ITV Anglia Tonight broadcast is still online at the time of writing, but is still resticted to UK IP addresses.<br/> <br/> The local Evening Telegraph newspaper printed a very nice article and even an editorial on the event, and surpassed their usual standards by only having three errors in the first line...<br/> Thankfully the condensed online version has been tidied up somewhat: [http://www.northantset.co.uk/news/local/corby/airman_s_widow_in_emotional_trip_1_2777106|LINK] &#x1f642;<br/> <br/> All the best,<br/> Paul <br/><br/>Paul Bellamy<br/> <img class='ForumMaxImgWidth' src='/public/Attachments/ForumNew.MainPage/resource1.png' /><br/>
