To my Uncle Joe...

Uncle Joe served with the Royal Air Force (RAF) during WWII and some later conflicts too. He also worked on Crete with Special Operations Executive (SOE). I inherited an old cardboard box with loads of photos of him in the RAF. Since then, I have been invited to a Squadron Reunion and met some of the old aircrew who remember him. I've made this little amateurish collection of photos put to music (Music is called Tennessee).

  2. What a wonderful tribute. The final words in red put a cold shiver in my shoulders. The music of course is PERFECT. Thank you Paddy for posting this to share here...
