Achtung Spitfire! Posted August 3, 2020 Share Posted August 3, 2020 B52 Tail Section South Vietnam. Deuce and a halfs earning their keep. Central Highlands Vietnam. River Kwai Bridge. Contrary to the famous film the Bridge was a partial concrete/ steel structure purchased by the Japanese from where I can't recall. Built by allied POWs. Final span was bombed in 1945. Rebuilt after the war. Based on information on site. Kanchanaburi Allied War Cemetery,River Kwai Northern Thailand located on the site of the original cemetery. The land was gifted to the fallen by the King of Thailand in their honour. So peaceful and well kept. Befitting to those who made the ultimate sacrifice for our freedom. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
