I photographed this at the time as the one above. A fair bit of reflection, But the wording says, In Memory of those of the 8th American Air Force Stationed in this parish who gave their lives in the cause of humanity.

This memorial used to be on the wall of the guardroom but was taken down a number of years ago. It was then put up in Pathfinder House, Huntingdon but has since been taken down again. It is currently in store somewhere in the Huntingdon / Alconbury area. Hopefully one day it will be returned and put on display again somewhere on the airfield.
