| 30 | On the way up to this area, the I.O. Lieut. R.C. Patterson was handed – at LONGCHAMPS 5602 – two letters by a Flight Sgt Brown who had come down in the area on 8 July 44: He wished them to be censored and sent to his relatives in England. The Flight Sgt had been very well looked after by a French family and well supplied with food and cigarettes through the Resistance Movement. He was full of high praise for the Army boys, a great tribute from the R.A.F.!!! |
