Some years ago, about 15 I guess, we were in the Land Warfare Hall at Duxford watching that bit of film, my youngest and his friend, 10 and 11 and me, and an elderly couple. My boy was giving a running commentary as was his want on all things military, and I asked the elderly woman if Will was a nuisance. "No", she said, "my husband was in the landing craft behind the man with the camera, but has never seen the film". Will immediately started talking to the man and I again asked if I should remove him. "No" she said, "let them talk". Will often recounts the story of that day.


Just seen the flypast of BBMF - nice touch to have the Dakota in the lead
