The summer of 1940 is forever engrained in our national memory, as are the young men who banded together, from 12 nations, to protect Britain's skies and her people during the aerial conflict that became known as the Battle of Britain. Not only was this battle a desperate struggle against overwhelming odds; the price of failure was no less than the end of freedom and democracy in Europe. This year the Royal Air Force Museum London is offering you the opportunity to raise a toast to 'The Few' and, in the process, help us to maintain the iconic aircraft that flew in the battle. We are offering our Corporate Clients the exclusive opportunity to entertain their guests with a Battle of Britain Champagne Reception surrounded by the very combat aircraft that protected our nation during its darkest days.
