Re the Canberra that landed short, in the North Sea.
Civvy here, years later I worked with one of the survivors who had ejected underwater. Alan was given the last rights and his wife was flown with great haste up to Scotland while his life hung by a thread. Happily he made a good recovery although one of his legs was never properly straight. I've no idea where he is now but I recall that he was a real gent.
