Thank You, Richard!

Really interesting.
It is always a pleasure to meet a WW2 veteran. They are the custodians of an inestimable wealth of experiences and knowledges not traceable elsewhere.

I don't know to which unit "Megiddo" belongs. Some ideas?

Luigi

I forget what he said now (so much was said) the image was taken during Market Garden.

Chap still knew the PAM for the buckets machine gun off by heart, but was quick to joke he could remember what he did last week.
