Jack came to my house here 30 miles south of York. It was my father who knew Jack well. They were both in 2 SAS. My father died in 1997 aged nearly 80. I first met jack Paley when I was about 10 years old in 1956. By this time we lived at Aldershot and my father was RSM 3 Parachute regiment. I have a letter from a man called McDonald here from my fathers personal effects. This Macdonald was a layer from Novia Scotia. If it is your fahter's letter give me your address and I will send a copy of it to you. In 1990 I spent nine months in Edmonton Canada working as teacher-had a telephone conversation with Roy Farran. He invited me over but I could not make it. By the way my wifes father was born in Saskatchewan. If you want e-mail me directly then contact me on ggalcock@btinternet.com - I don't know if you should add .uk after the .com but I don't use that ending locally just .com or contact Jack paley as he has my telephone number.</p></blockquote><p></p>
