Afterwards, the children placed electric candles on every single grave. During the refreshment break with foods prepared by the Czech and Slovak Embassies, a lecture was given by Tom Doležal and George Scott on the Czechoslovak soldiers and airmen who were stationed in the UK during WW2, including the specific stories of several of them. At the end of the afternoon, a raffle with themed prizes - books, DVDs, and Spitfire paper models (donated by Mr. Ladislav Hančár of Kovozávody Prostějov) for the children, took place.

The Embassy of the Czech Republic would like to thank the Free Czechoslovak Air Force Association, especially Mrs. Gerry Manolas, and everyone involved in the organisation of the ceremony, the honorable guests and all the visitors who came on Sunday afternoon to honour those to whom we owe so much and whom we shall never forget.
