March 21, 2015 it was exactly 70 years ago. A commemoration was held at the memorial for the dead pupils and nuns. Normally, it´s personnel from the Danish Air Home Guard that stands guard of honor at the memorial, but this year, as a gesture, that honor was given to the RAF Regiment. Wreaths was laid by the British ambassador Vivien Life and Air Chief Marshal Sir Andrew Pulford. After 2 minutes of silence, people were asked to look to the sky and about 30 seconds later the memorial was over flown by four British Eurofighter Typhoon's which was unusual since flying at low altitude over Copenhagen is usually not allowed.
