No, I did not that about Marie Curie.
Thought the memorial was for all the Polish that gave their lives and that the position was because of 303.
CSB Knew a few Polish servicemen, that had married Italian women. Used to underage drink in the Polish ex servicemens club. Odd that they knew we were underage, but we were drinking banks bitter or mild. Seems odd that we were told stories of the 'fun' that the servicemen had going to dances and being proud of being Polish.
Did you know that in photographs taken of her in her later life, Marie Curie appeared blurred on account of her emanating radiation.
ETA 303 Squadron were based at RAF Northolt - hence the Polish War Memorial, adjacent to the airfield.
