One of the TPs on D Sqdn at Boscombe in the 70s was a Major Ken Mead AAC (later Lt Col.) Chatting to him one day and he mentioned, in passing, that he was an ex Glider Regt. WW2 pilot (Staff Sgt?). Didn't elaborate but likely to have been on 'Market Garden'. A total 'English Gentleman' and an absolute pleasure to have known him.
