    Very nice write up, LouVic. I especially love the photo of your Granddad. I hope you will be adding more to his story.

    That's a very emotional read Ron. Please do feel free to add any of it on to my blog by commenting on the rear gunners story I posted. Or perhaps you would let me link back to your story here? Louise

    A powerful story, Louise. I also can't imagine a young man doing that. In fact, I wonder how men and women of the 40s did what they did. Kudos to them all.
