I did a cook-out in area 76 in the Aleutians, Bitty and Tommo's Handley Page Halifax took

flak right down her right flank - the blighters had to bail out. I dropped my Bristol Beau onto her fuselage a week later not half a mile from where they landed.

Bully beef and birthday cake made out of paraffin and beeswax polish for us. Luckily the few japs that were on the island had a disease of the nose and couldn't smell our cooking.

Twiggy and Jock ended up on our island a few days later when the props on their Armstrong Whitley fell off because they flew too close to the sun. Bally idiots!
