Thanks to anyone flying in WW2- from a Brit
 
Hi there, My name's Bob - I'm a Brit with a vacation home in The Villages and served in the Royal Air Force for 30 years. I'm only a youngster at 63 so missed all those early 'punch ups' but have read a great deal about the 'Bomber Boys' of WW11. Please pass on to your husband from a Brit, my congratulations first of all on making it through because I know a lot didn't, and secondly my thanks for what he did over Germany to help make my generation free. Very Best Wishes to you both. Bob.

See the link to a Wikipedia article on the MSTS Rose - apparently you were on its last outbound trip.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/USS_Adm...n_%28AP-126%29

In Dec 1964 I enjoyed a winter cruise in the North Atlantic to Germany on the MSTS Patch a sister ship of the Rose.
