Thanks Chris - I always think 3 days aren't enough to listen to all the stories. It's a very special weekend.
During the second week of June I'll be welcoming the extended family of 2nd Lt Lloyd Stanford, a USAAF B17 bombardier who evaded successfully. He was lucky to survive a night crossing of the river Bidassoa in flood on 23 Dec '43 that tragically took the lives of two of those involved. He hadn't spoken of his evasion and his daughter stumbled across our web site and read the full story for the first time. She's bringing 3 generations of the family over! It's bound to be a very emotional occasion.
We'll give them a taste of what their father went through - including the river crossing..! The Spanish will hold their fire this time though.
