Do you know this man? So many in New Zealand don’t know this man. He is Sir Keith Park and a two-point-three-metre bronze statue of his likeness as a pilot and airman, was unveiled at Thames Airfield on Sunday before a crowd of 600 people. Thames is Sir Keith’s hometown. This man’s life, his character and actions were the central focus of the commemorations of the Battle of Britain in the open air under very chilly skies for local people and many visiting dignitaries on Sunday, 14 September.
