My father died this morning at 8am. Another genuine veteran passes on. God bless you Dad, I am so very thankful for what you and your generation did for us in 39/45. Rest in peace, reunited with those you loved. Thank you for the memories. :'-(

Thank you so much for your kind words and for posting the coloured picture. That was taken in 1943 at RAF Chedburgh when he was a P/O. He had become a Flight Lieutenant by the war's end. Bless you Dad... So proud of you.
