In March 1945 I was an R.A.F. Glider pilot recalled from leave for what we knew would be the Rhine Crossing. My father, who had been through the 14-18 WR, took me to the station here, put his head through the carriage window and said ""don't forget, keep your head down" and so off to war. No question of not going.
