I was nine years old when WW11 broke out and I took my cat TIBS into the cupboard under the stairs when the siren sounded, it was an error not an air raid, my father was cross but I protested that Tibs had not got a gas mask.
I saw Barrage Balloons, silver against the sky but I could also see the black smoke from the burning oil at Thames Haven. This was the day that I joined the church choir.
My elder brother Raymond served in the Merchant Navy throughout the war, he was
Torpedoed and spent eight days in an open boat off Cape Town. He was involved in the Normandy Landings and died in 1947, when he was only 23,
My father was a telephone engineer, who made a 大象传媒 broadcast about the time he was called out to the airport with his gang to restore communication s which had been interrupted by a delayed action bomb ,during the Battle of Britain.
