International Bomber Command Centre
The panels arranged in circles around the monument are inscribed with almost 58,000 names there no ranks or awards all are equal, there is a small hole against each name so relatives can leave a poppy. The site was chosen for the monument because of the distant view of Lincoln Cathedral because returning crews would be looking for the landmark to know they were nearly home, sadly for many it was their last sight of England. The height of the monument is the wingspan of a Lancaster Bomber. I found an inscription with my surname I looked it up he died 19 August 1943 aged 19

Did you place a poppy in the space of your namesake, Peter?

What a lovely idea to have a hole for a poppy beside each name! It looks beautiful against the blue sky.

I think they need a system so that visitors can leave a donation for a poppy at any time of the year and then it is put in place for Remembrance Day. The centre only opened in January the Peace Gardens are still work in progress, you can also visit the exhibition hall
