The Comet Line

To my shame I knew nothing of this. I must find Airey Neave’s book.

During a couple of trips to Northern Belgium related to 619 Squadron Lancaster, ME846 I have been privileged to meet several of the Belgian Resistance members and their families.

I have also helped to cross-reference some of the research presented here!

It was also a privilege to meet an ex-100 Squadron bomb aimer, F/S Reg Brookes who evaded with Peter Knox. His book about his wartime memories is still available from the NAM Shop. Reg is also mentioned in this link!

Many thanks for the info and the link!:)
