Dear old Dad had been a fireman in London in the blitz. As kids we played with his belt with axe pouch, tin hat and a German incendiary bomb which he said had been de activated. However, the thing he showed me that I found Mother had ditched after his death was the carbon copy of a report my Uncle, Ernest Cartwright (Dad's brother-in-law) had written to Gen Allenby in about 1917, about the activities of one Col. Lawrence. What I would not give to have that back
