http://www.ceskatelevize.cz/ct24/nejnovejsi-videa/317150-k-padu-nacistu-v-belgii-prispeli-i-ceskoslovensti-letci/ Recently our company was tasked to create and deliver a short report commemorating Czechoslovaks who fought and fell around Ypres during WW2. The report went out on Czech mainstream news channels and we are delighted with received feed back. If you wish to see more, please click on the above link. Language issues aside we hope you enjoy watching the report as much as we did creating it. Best wishes Chris
Cheers for that. I understood your bit. Had to look up where he was buried . I see your photos here. https://fcafa.wordpress.com/2013/10/25/remembrance-of-sgt-karel-pavlik-2013/ http://thebignote.com/2013/05/28/ypres-town-cemetery-extension/ Haven't been there for years.
Thank you Owen. The Czech language is a very beautiful language to listen to unlike the gutteral German or Dutch languages to my ears anyway. I often imagine German air crews ears listening out for Polish, Czech or other occupied nations fighter pilots voices on the air waves when being attacked. These particular nations pilots rarely spared the lives of bailed out German aircrew and according to reports we have read in the Czech military institute of Prague and elsewhere, often deliberately targetted at close range enemy aircraft gun turrets and cockpits in order to kill rather than simply shoot down but I guess that was always going to happen......
