Sad news.

Those who met and heard fellow Swordfish veteran John Moffat speak just yesterday, will appreciate just how much we owe to these men and their courage.

RIP Sir.

That is very sad news.. The last of the Channel Dash Swordfishmen and the only one to escape serious injury. RIP sir.

What a coincidence that only the other day i suggested a film based on the exploits and heroics of Edgar and his fellow airmen.
