Wander00 (#10083),
...It would be nice if I could include the best wishes of the PPRuNe community, some of the boys and girls she sang for...
Never sang for me (individually), but she had the pluck to get right up to the "sharp end" in Burma - which is more than some other "celebrities" cared to do. Got in amongst the PBI to sing in the Burma mud (quite right, too - for the "Forgotten [14th] Army" were the real heroes of the Burma war.
Abiding memory of her at the Calcutta Swimming Club (the one opposite the Law Courts), wearing a slick yellow one-piece, surrounded by a cohort of "Gabardine Swine". Looked great ! Was on leave at the time, far side of the pool, had to worship from afar. Memories, memories !
So congratulations Dame Vera, and All the Best - from one of your many secret admirers.
