English: Memorial to Air Chief Marshall Lord Dowding Air Chief Marshall Hugh Dowding, (1882-1970) was born at Moffat the son of a schoolmaster. He was the commander-in-chief of Fighter Command from 1936 to 1940 responsible for the air defence of Britain and as such directed the RAF during the Battle of Britain. This was successful largely due to his planning.
As the memorial claims we have much cause to be grateful to him , his pilots and ground crew. |
