My father marched with his ‘oppo’ Mark Mead, with whom he had completed his operational training at R.A.F Abingdon.

Mark Mead’s aircraft had been shot down over Belgium and coincidentally he was imprisoned at Stalag VIIIB.

In 2005 he was well enough in the June to join in one of the Royal British Legion’s 60th anniversary commemorations, a trip back to Stalag VIIIB. It was very moving that he shared the return too with his ‘oppo’ Mark Mead.
