Peter, I know you probably do not want too, but you do know you as a relative you could apply for them.

An excellent tribute to very brave men.
“Did the skipper look about 70?” You would too if you had gone through that 20 or 30 times.
The way BC and Harris were treated by the great and good was shameful. My father had been a tailor on bomber bases from 1941 to the end of the war and refused to apply for his medals, he was so disgusted. He had medals from the 14-18 war which he wore with pride.

Very good and very moving. But was me or did the ‘Skipper’ look about 70?

It brings the book ‘Bomber Boys’ by Patrick Bishop to life. Very moving.

re the mention of the Len Deighton “Bomber” broadcast, it is to be recommended. Contact info for the talking book version is www.bbcshop.com
