In the same way as the excellent "Random Cool Photo Thread" created by Smithy, I propose to post here all the cool videos worth sharing.
Yes, this is a thread about videos in the photos section of the forum. If moderators feel that it should be moved to another section, don't hesitate to do so. ;)

To begin, here is an interview with pilots of the 354th Fighter Group dated June 7th 1944.
The video comes from this excellent Youtube channel :

Good choice! Clearly unhappy about night time escort duties - and clearly all knackered!

Note the popularity of the British C Type helmets.
Minor error in the the title when it states ‘Essexshire’ - it should be simply ‘Essex’ (minus the ‘shire’).

Wow!!
Look at the size of that thing !
I can’t imagine the amount of man hours it took to build that model aircraft . The cost of it must be staggering. If that one has a rough landing or worse…. It’s going to be a bad day for someone

The difference between these guys and the Hollywood twinks who play them on the big screen is gigantic, titanic, undescribable. To me they sound like a bunch of work-a-day carpenters talking about a rough job. Beautiful choice of video to start this thread! (I'm on one of my mini-relapses into internet)
