In this age of mass imformation I sometimes think we leave so much personel history go unspoken. We search out so many things from around the globe seated at out own desks, that we must miss the experiences of the people so close to us. Only the other day I saw a picture of my grandfather in Crete during the war. He was surrounded by his mates sitting on a number of cab 12 CMPs.
I have been interested in and owned blitzs for years and never knew my grandfather drove them during the war.
Record as much as is possible Keith. These men will not be around forever, but your recordings will last and enlighten for generations.
I will post the photo of my Grandfather as soon as my mother forwards a copy to me.
