How these lads got down safely from any jump is a miracle in its self,what with the incoming rounds and kit they carried.
My old mate Jack said he dropped in to Armhem at a higher fate of fall than he’d ever experienced in any of the training jumps.Landing in a heep and breaking his weapon.He did say a kind German fellow donated a rifle shortly after.

When i was a kid i remember our milk man telling a tail of getting a flight in a two seater lightning, when asked about it,he said i had my eyes closed and threw up a lot.I always took it with a pinch of salt.
One lovely day in Finningley,i was talking to two lightning pilots and told him of our milkman.One said it was him who took him up and confirmed the 20 minute flight did include much vomiting and not once did he open his eyes.He also said “he screamed like a girl” on the full afterburn take off and climb out of Binbrook.
Wonder why he omitted that bit.:D

There are loads missing off that banned list.
Flood, Hairless Joe, S Vaspic and others too………

Ahhhh flood,but did he jump or pushed (swim may be)
