Wilson -
Thanks very much for advising about the Bournemouth Raid book. I just ordered it through amazon. My father was there and I'm very eager to see what this book contains. I really appreciate you taking the time to post this info - I'd never have known of the book.

This is a remarkable, fascinating and emotional story. Thank you for sharing it. I just read through all the posts again and finally see the bracelet back at the crash site. Amazing.
Thank you.
Roger,
Thank you! I do hope Mr. Edgington understands that there are lots of people who are interested in his work and that another print run would be welcomed.
I appreciate your posting it in the first place and also providing me with the citation.
Thanks!
Hugh
Roger,
Can you give me the exact title of this pamphlet you sent the extract from? Also the author and publishing information. I'd like to be able to specifically cite the source. This is wonderful material. Thank you for sharing.

My father was in the raid. He was in the 8th AF and on R/R and staying at a hotel - - wish I knew which one!
He bitterly recalled standing on the cliffs and watching German fighterbombers coming in at 100 feet. He was angry (this was 1987) that the germans would attack a non-military target...
BoB experts
I've taken your advice and been doing some very enjoyable reading. I thoroughly enjoyed Wellum's "First Light" and also Hillary's "Last Enemy." Read through Deighton's "BoB," as well. Right now I'm absorbed in Bungay's "The Most Dangerous Enemy." I find it very thought...
Thank you very much for your suggestions. Now I feel like I have something concrete to start with. I don't want to become buried in the BoB but I feel I need to know more than I do now. Thank you!
I certainly do feel welcomed here. My thanks to you all. (or as Southerners say "y'all" )
Parmigiano - Dobbins is near Atlanta - - that's a long way (and it is Atlanta, which I avoid for years at a time). Robins AFB is about 50 miles away. Home of a very nice museum. Next time you're...
I'm trying to locate a good, comprehensive (yet readable) book about the Battle of Britain. There are lots of books out there.
Can anyone recommend one book - if you could only have one - on the Battle of Britain?
I'm looking for something that assume that the reader already knows...
Ah,.....I was the last guy on the planet to get a DVD player. I can barely answer a cell phone. I'm the guy who thinks anything designed or made after WWI can't be trusted.
So,...no I can't tweak the thing.
Yes! That's the right film. Regretably, amazon in the US doesn't carry that DVD - I guess it's not compatable with US DVD players.
Thanks for your input. I highly recommend the movie to any of you (outside the US) who can find it.
Thanks!
