The Channel dash.

What a wonderful contribution you are making with the vivid recollections of your gallant Father and how proud you must be of him, John. Thank you and how humble I feel when I read of the fate of those intrepid crews of the Swordfish. I also feel so angry at the circumstances that led us to have to pit those ancient "Stringbags" against the terrible odds that faced them. "Lions led by Donkeys" again springs to mind. A quiet , but heartfelt "Thank you" to all of them. Regle.
