That was very interesting indeed.  I can’t place his accent, but it’s probably 
Leicestershire, Lincolnshire or Nottinghamshire.  What a lovely chap!

My father, who died in 1982, would have been about the same age; he joined the 
RAF to be a pilot, but got no further than the initial training.  He was then 
sent to be a driver in Germany.
