| For my wife, probably some of the memorabilia we have yet to sift through of her grandfather's time as a DEMS gunner.
For me, at present, it's a framed print of Robert Taylor's Desert Hawks showing four 3 Sqn RAAF Kittyhawks over the desert and signed by some heroes of mine who I shall never meet - Bobby Gibbes, Nicky Barr, Wilfred Arthur, Peter Jeffrey, Alan Rawlinson, Murray Nash and Jack Doyle. No family connection but men I have admired for many years have touched something in my possession and it is most humbling.
Will post pics of the print and the memorabilia in the near future once we organise it. |
