Not many left hear now. There is one who i grew up not far from that is still going. One who passed a couple of years ago was in the dam buster crews, they pretty much went up knowing they were going to die. My neighbour died about 10 years ago, he used to tell some interesting stories. He was conscripted into the Italian army so took off into Switzerland but was caught and sent to the Russian front. He told me what he saw was bad and he wasn't near the bad part. His worst experience was being lined up and then held down and having his wisdom teeth pulled out with pliers. Only pain relief they had was shoving snow in their mouths. He ended up a prisoner of war. He was a very tough hard man when i knew him. I remember a comotion next door one day, he was 40ft down a well when his wife "accidently" dropped a 4x2 piece of wood down. He reckons that made his knees buckle. Think it would have killed me! All my uncles who fought are long gone, only got to meet one of them. I had one uncle who used to get dropped in behind lines and do recconaisense. He came back messed up and drank the rest of his life away.
