Description
Weathering steel panels - "walls of names" - at the International Bomber Command Centre (IBCC) on Canwick Hill outside Lincoln, list almost 58,000 men and women who lost their lives serving or supporting Bomber Command during WWII. There are 270 panels made from engraved sheets that are designed to rust and not require painting. They record names but not ranks or decorations, on the principle that every life lost in Bomber Command was equal in sacrifice.
A donation from the sale of this image will go to the IBCC.
