Looks a good event Colin.
How did an ex-RAF chap from Bassett get himself invited to that do?
My reply:
Yes Owen it was a great event.
I have been a member of the 36th/540th Combat Engineers website, set up by Marion Chard to honour her dad, since 2004. My only connection has been my research and other activities concerning Operation Husky, Sicily 1943. Her dad landed at Licata beach on the southern shore of the island with Patton's 7th US ARMY on the 10th July.
They made this ex RAF erk very welcome!
Colin.
