....and that's how it should be. Xmas Eve, AKRO to LYE told of Comp A to Lye. "Where's his family?" said I. "Germany" said AKRO. "Ring Gotersloh - we'll drop him off there" said I. "They'll be closed". "Bet they stay open - just try" said I - and they did and we watched the soldier get off the aircraft straight into the car. Probably the most rewarding thing i did in 20 yrs!
