You're Top Poster: #1 | Bomber boys talk about their role TV3 > News > National News > Story > Bomber boys talk about their role in WWII from MOTAT Watch the video Quote:
One group of men pushing for their war to be remembered is the RAF bomber command of New Zealand.
More than 6000 Kiwis served in the Lancaster bombers in WWII and one in three was killed.
At Auckland's MOTAT museum, the Wednesday bomber boys as they're affectionately known,. meet every Wednesday morning for a cuppa, and to help with the maintenance and restoration of a Lancaster bomber.
