Just not my time..
I flew the same sortie the day before..
I was meant to fly on this mission..
I had an abscess in a tooth, swollen face and was told to go sick..
I was a very junior squadron member..
I will never talk about squadron personalities..
It was a real shock to the squadron - the accident and aftermath..
Ten years later I suffered from 'survivors guilt'..
It was not my time..
