In times of great crisis, people generally show amazing ingenuity or self-
reliance; others sometimes do incredibly stupid things. Do you recall any
examples of either?

Do you recall any incidents with the Germans? Fights, surrenders, truces or
any conversations you may have had with them afterwards?

Do you know of anybody else who landed within the period as infantry, glider or
airborne troops, or who took part in any of the operation, whom we should write
to? Please include addresses if available.
