Bonjour Fill
Yes, a rather noble sentiment ... My father, now deceased, had meet Great War airmen and I wish the anecdotes related had been collected even if only in an informal manner. A few years ago Legends Of Aviation No.4 S.E. 5a by Kocent-Zieliński was purchased and my father related "I lived across the road from him when growing up" while pointing a profile of a S.E.5a flown by William Harrison when with 40 Squadron.
Years ago I was in a room with
George Vaughn and
Douglas Campbell, but, was too awestruck to speak to either!
So yes, any impressions or memories of meetings with the Great War pilots and aircrew of those gentlemen from whose efforts we here have so benefited would be much appreciated.
Salut!
Kirk
