The clues definately helped

OK, why are they famous? (clue: third man was the first to be killed)

The RAF's first Polish fighter squadron?
(don't know the number, I'm going by the chequer badge on the third man's knee-pads)

(Winston Churchill made this prophetic pronouncement in a House of Commons speech in 1938, just after Prime Minister Neville Chamberlain signed the Munich agreement with Hitler. Chamberlain returned from Germany with the signed agreement in hand, proclaiming that "peace in our time" had been achieved. Churchill attacked Chamberlain's "politics of appeasement" in this and many other speeches.) What did the Australians do in ww2 and other conflicts?
