Good morning Danny,
many thanks for your reply and your willingness to share your experiences. I often wonder if I should have asked people about their service days during WWII. George, an old friend of mine, was captured in France and spent most of the war in a German pow camp. George eventually escaped and surrendered to the advancing Russians. Sadly, my friend George was killed by a hit an run driver some years ago!
Often, whilst at Talacre, I think of you and your fellow pilots; wondering if you made it home and how things fared after hostilities ceased. Born in 1945, whilst the Russians were still beating down the gates of Berlin, I am ever grateful for the sacrifice that so many made on our behalf.
