Angry The Shambuster's disgrace

This lends a new angle to several news items which some of us posted last week. If true, he should hang his head in shame-
Bogus Dambusters 'hero' is exposed as a fantasist - by own daughter | Mail Online

I applaud the daughter for exposing Mr. Jephcott's deception. This is a slap in the face to Guy Gibson and 53 men who lost their lives on May 17th, 1943.

Thumbs down Re: The Shambuster's disgrace

One can almost feel sorry for people who do this sort of thing - it is literally pathetic. As they approach the end of their lives, they must need to feel that they did once achieve 'something'......uuuurrrgh ! Sad.

And don't forget, we have even had one or two such people appear on the Forum with their dubious claims in the past......

Funny how some need to invent themselves a life in order to exist.
