[QUOTE="John Robertson, post: 43716, member: 1"] Another photo added on request by Graham Alcock These two men in the picture helped my father's patrol and at least one other one from 'Operation Pistol' by offering them food and shelter and some practical support. They were both farmers from different farms along his escape route. The man on the left hid my father for two nights and organised a guide for hm to get him to the front lines. The man on the right hid my father in his farm for two or three days. Dad slept in a bed that a German Sergeant Major slept in at night time. Ntice the rifle which is an American Carbine left by the SAS. He has it to this day. My father wrote the letter in 1944 as a way of thanks. In 2009 I visited the farm and the family produced the letter which I photographed. Without these mens help, they both had families with young children, me and my sons would not exist today - how can you put a value on that. [/QUOTE]
