I do hope Cliff and the rest of the crew keep this thread going. I notice it went a bit quiet with Regle's passing. I see that as a mark of respect for a member of a generation that we all truly cherish. There is so much to be learned by young people of the exploits of chaps back then.

When I was a kid we read 'Reach for the Sky', the Dambusters, , Wing Leader and many others. We used to hear regularly in the media from men like Douglas Bader and Leonard Cheshire and they were a great inspiration. It's terrific that there are still guys out there who are prepared to take on this new media and keep telling their stories which seem as fresh as if they were yesterday.

Keep it coming - I'm getting withdrawal symptoms!
