There's a very large section covering his service with the Poles in the late Michael Bentine's autobiography 'The Long Banana skin'. He served as Intelligence Officer on a bomber squadron for a while.

There's a lovely story about how some downed aircrew escaped back to England, helped by a long line of grateful ladies right across Europe. And where else could you read of a farmer being blown up by a sea mine in Yorkshire.....

Thanks gentlemen, we owe you!
