During World War 2 the New Forest was host to 12 Airfields which supported aircrew from many nations in many flying roles. In particular was the build up for D-Day. To recognise this immense task and sacrifice, the New Forest Airfields Memorial was created at which an annual commemoration is held to honour the people who worked and the aircrew who were lost.Contributory nations are represented by their national flags alongside the RAF Ensign, as well as national and local politicians and representatives from veterans organisations. A service of remembrance will be held at the memorial and a wreath will be laid on behalf of all veterans and members of the Glider Pilot Regiment Society in remembrance of all those from the Regiment.This event is organised by the Friends of the New Forest Airfields.
