Petition update, 23 December 2009

More details from petition creator

After a long campaign The Bevin Boys and the Land Army were recently given an award, and now there is a growing demand from an angry public for Bomber Command to be awarded a CAMPAIGN MEDAL.

125,000 aircrew carried out 366,514 sorties ( 297,663 by night ) and during these operations 55,573 pilots and crew were killed, the largest loss of life in any of our services.

This petition is on behalf of all 125,000 members of Bomber Command who deserve a CAMPAIGN MEDAL as a mark of respect for their endeavour, outstanding bravery and sacrifice of lives that saved our country and PRESERVED OUR FREEDOM !!

THEY MUST NOT BE FORGOTTEN !!
