Where you actually there

Never saw a yellow cab all the time we were there (2 days) slept on the floor in Cork hangar protected by 3 SB officers who were armed because we were under threat from the local IRA contingent who had informed the authorities they were looking for a target of opportunity.
From my recollection there were 3 yellow Seakings from RAF Brawdy, 1 from RAF Boulmer, 1 Chinook from RAF Odiham, 1 USAF CH53 and I must admit I didn't see any RN presence - did you turn up on the right day or were the film crew not available on the 23 Jun so you came after we had all gone home
