John's father - a navigator with 207 Squadron -was amongst the thousands of Allied airmen who had to bail out over occupied France following a bombing raid on an enemy target. Fortunately for John his father survived and based on his recollections and on the research work which John has since undertaken he has managed to piece together the story of his fathers meeting with members of the SOE resistance and of his journey to freedom.
The friendships which John's father made with the members of the resistance survive to this day and now span the generations of the families. Our thanks go to John for preserving his father's story and sharing it with us.
