my grandad was in 78 sqn during wwII as a rear gunner in halifax's in breighton yorkshire and then went to 99 sqn in liberators in india and coco islands he is still alive, and love the storys he tells of the bomb runs over germany berlin and sumatra, he completed he's ops in 78 sqn and re volunteered for a second time going into 99 sqn oversees, he was in the last bomb run over japan before they droped the atom, he turned down the clasp as he said the men that were lost and him was not recognised then so why now, he still thinks of all those that were lost and for what, he said he can never forget what happened and all the friends he lost, but said he did it for country and king along with most at that time. i have upmost respect for all those in that time and always will, and overs in modern day conflict.
