The Snaith Memorial
This plaque may be seen at The Priory church of St. Lawrence in Snaith, Yorkshire , England. It was placed there by the members of The 150 Squadron Association. Snaith was picked because that was the aerodrome where the squadron was based for the longest period of time during WW II. There is another memorial at Hemswell, England placed there by the men who flew Lancasters out of that base from November 1944 to the end of W.W.II in May 1945. The squadron crest may also be seen in the floor of St. Clement Danes Church in London - The R.A.F. Church - destroyed by Luftwaffe bombing during the Blitz of 1940 and rebuilt and rededicated as a memorial to all who served in the Royal Air Force.
