I agree with maggsworld.I mentioned this while commenting on a post of yours "Weekend Field Trip " on March 2010.She & I have something in common,a dimple on the right cheek.

Some of the Royal Canadian Air Force,have been remembered in the WWII cemetery of Guwahati.They are :(1)Sergeant W.W.McArthur,died on November 2nd 1943 aged 34 years. (2)Flying Officer A.J.Davies,Pilot died on Deember 17th 1943 aged 26 years (3)Flying Officer J.R.Wilson,Pilot died on January 12th 1945 aged 21 years (4)Flight Lieutenent H.D.Mackey,Pilot died on April 4th 1945 aged 22 years. Three of them were not even 30 of age ! May they rest in peace !

She was just a young thing. I only recently thought about how young she was at the time. Younger than my kids. Thanks. Sally
