Before listening to this episode I had never hear of Thomas Gray or Donald Garland. Such a brave and tragic story, it also shows how the war decimated families. I cant even imagine the grief the Garland family must have gone through. Powerful Stuff, great episode.

Throwback to Oosterbeek cemetery before the service. Polish armed forces pay their respects. I watched them place a rose on every grave and spoke with a couple. Very moving! So glad I was able to attend!

Gone back into the archive and found the video I took at Old Warden Airshow of Vulcan XH558 Last display in October 2015. 10 Years this year, never heard an aircraft set so many car alarms off before! My Favourite of all time #RAF
