The only thing my german grandpa ever told about the war is that British Soldiers risked their lifes to pull him out of the water before he died in the ice cold Atlantic Ocean. He often told his 3 daughters (born after the war) and 6 grandchildren that we wouldn’t exist without the Royal Marine. They sunk his boat but rescued him and all the survivors. I hope somewhere in the UK some old men in my age share the story of their Grandfathers who were heroes and saved some enemies lifes.

My Gran got a telegram in the morning to say He was killed and He bounced into the house in the afternoon and my Gran fainted. I have resect for the Gents who fought and did their duty on all sides. Fun but sad fact. Merchant seamen's pay was stopped at the time their ship was sunk.

Gibbo Great interview and my first time hearing from all the crew of the accout. My mate was the RAF Regiment force protection commander (Cpl David Wordingham 1 Sqn) on that mission. I remember him telling me that they were not going to let get back on the aircraft till the loady steped in. He jumped back in and didnt plug back into the comms and had now idea the amount of RPG's fired at the cab till they got back to COB. I also did IRT force protection with flight Lieutenant Goodman on the same tour. destination was to the Palace to pick a head injury casualty from roadside bomb, Cpl John Rigby 4th rifles was a twin, his brother William in the same battalion. I remember the medics working really hard as John kept crashing on the flight back. Sadly the Cpl died of his injuries with his brother in the hospital.Sad times all round.

I enjoy visiting old RAF airfields past and present and read the history of each when I'm visiting relatives there in the UK. Especially the ones with a lot of history during WWII. To me it hurts to see open fields instead of a base but see overgrowth where a runway once was. My grandfather flew P-47's out of the UK protecting the B-17's and AVRO Landcasters on their bombing runs. I had the honor meeting such wonderful people there in the UK coming the the United States, they are wonderful to chat with especially older folks who remember WWII and the aircraft that once flew out

[@nickviner1225]

As a youngster I learnt to drive on several of those old runways in Essex. near Colchester

[@mateobravo9212]

The runways may be overgrown, but the British don't forget what men like your grandfather did. Thank you. Greetings from Spain.

[@artgreen6915]

Don't forget Britain was under direct attack and large amounts of the neighbouring continent was under enemy control. It was probably a great comfort to have not only America joining the war, but actually in Britain operating significant quantities of aircraft. So Britain which is much smaller than the US was militarised far beyond 'normal' and accommodating significant friendly forces. This was a huge growth in military activity and inevitable that many airfields to support this were temporary popups. The nation didn't have the budget or the need for anything like this number of facilities after the war. It was no disrespect of the memory.

Excellent team. Excellent job. I do like how her co-pilot, who could have been aircraft commander that day admitted that if he had been in charge that day that he's not sure if he would have went forward with the mission, and how the gunner said that her receiving the award in his opinion has everything to do with the mission and nothing else because that was the hairiest evac mission he'd ever been on. And with his long career he's seen a few.

I agree , but are you aware that during the war aircraft from the factory had to be delivered to the many different squadrons , almost all the pilots where women, leaving the men on the front lines.These pilots had to deliver all kinds of aircraft fighters, bombers or cargo aircraft.They were more experienced than most of the men who usually had one type to fly.... these women did a wonderful job that is not recognised as it should be.

[@zambiakid]

@@stevehilton4052 Agree. The ATA (Air Transport Auxiliary) were amazing. Sometimes pilots would fly six different types of plane in just one day: Spitfires, Hurricanes, Barracudas, Harvards, Wellingtons, Tempests and Lancaster bombers without radios or navigation aids. Because they were required to stay within sight of the ground, they were not taught the art of flying with instruments. They flew ‘blind’ with just maps, a compass and a watch. They weren't taught to use radios until after D-Day..... One pilot, Molly Rose, flew 36 different types of aircraft for the ATA. Not sure about them being mostly women though. 168 out of a total of 1,245 ATA ferry pilots and engineers were women.
