Military

Witnessed the crash of the Heinkel (HE 111H) of the touring circus on 10 November 1943 at Polebrook. 'The opportunity of serving with the 351st BG 511th BS was a momentous period in my early manhood. It exposed me to humanism, a new lifestyle, knowledge and the culture of the English people. The experience has had a lasting influence on my life as a responsible adult, seeking a peaceful world through the learning of other world cultures. '
