Well spoken Danny. This thread will always be a memorial to "cliffnemo" who started it almost 4 years ago. A memorial to him and all the other brave souls to whom we owe so much. The Nuremberg thread may have raised issues with Harris (who in due course I suspect will be reappraised by the historians just as the WW1 Generals have been) but all are as one in unstinting praise for the volunteer aircrew who went out night after night against fearful odds. Such courage is awesome and humbling.
Cliff, you lived life to the full, from what one learns of your more recent ventures and witness the trail blazing grappling with IT here. Don't stop now, but keep fighting on! Thank you Cliff, for every thing.
