Show Memorial To A Tragedy The greatest school tragedy of the war in Great Britain occurred Aug. 23, 1944, when an American plane crashed into a school building, build-ing, killing 61 people, 28 of them children. The site of the trgedy has now become a memorial playground, financed by gifts from American air base soldiers who provided the funds to transform the area in a three-acre playground. In addition, our soldiers built playground play-ground devices from salvaged equipment, graded and plowed the playing fileds and seeded the lawns. |
