Rejected petition New Years Honours for Tony Foulds

The 82-year-old Sheffield pensioner Tony Foulds – who has diligently been maintaining a memorial for the crew of the B-17 Flying Fortress known as Mi Amigo saw warplanes from Britain and the United States stage a fly-past to honour the 75th anniversary of the crash.

More details

Tony was just eight years old when he witnessed the fatal plane crash in the very same park, as the pilots attempted to steer clear of him and his friends. He has felt quilty for all theses years and has been tending to the memorial every day. This man is a true hero and should be reconised as such
