".......the Battle of France is over. The Battle of Britain is about to begin, upon this battle depends the survival of Christian civilization, upon it depends our own British life and the long continuity of our institution and our Empire." WINSTON CHURCHILL, JUNE 18 1940 FROM HIS "FINEST HOUR" SPEECH |

Over the years this educational section has been not only popular with
students researching the Battle of Britain, but was also very popular with
officers of the United States military as well as the Royal Air Force as a
source of information for upcoming lectures that they had to teach. Fifteen
years ago the Battle of Britain website amalgamated with the Battle of
Britain Historical Society and now incorporates the official website of the
Society and this Battle of Britain - 1940 website is now the educational
section. Today, the website is still the most sought after website on the
Battle of Britain and will continue to be in the years ahead
