Transcription
We did our work Helped the air crews, test, I did air testing on equipment and all that. But then when they drop paratroopers and things like that, I got to a slit trench and you didn’t get hit you just lived another day. It’s difficult to explain in war time conditions. When you signed up you signed your name on the dotted line. You might die or you might not die. You do what you can to stay alive, you know. Aircraft come back with some of the crew shot up. You take the bodies out. You don’t worry about it. It’s just another event. That’s war time conditions.
