Respect.
Thanks for posting the close-up of the plaque.
Interesting that they threw the word "sturdy" in there - rather underplays what those guys did.
But I did some hunting and it sure was a tough beast.
Some amazing pics here of ones that made it back after serious or even spectacular damage.

Itching to get back on my bike's
@Blue Hills there are a few USAF memorials locally and they use to be well visited by American visitors pre the pandemic .
This was a close-up, for some reason the picture with my bike in it didn't work

My Great Great Uncle had a large firm supplying Percheron Horses throughout the United States, for draft animals for horse cars and omnibuses, mainly. They (my great great great grandfather and his sons) imported and bred Percherons on their farms, and shipped them from this part of town. Even sold well in the South, despite their abolitionist politics.

Coming soon a memorial to the crew and the Avro Manchester bomber that was shot down in error when returning from a raid nearly 80 years ago.

You certainly can.
It's a flat bar, steel, Spa Tourer.
