How much more of an experience it must have been for you and your husband! While living in England I had two R.A.F. connections. When I first came to London I stayed with the famiy of a retired Wing Commander. I also spent more than one Christmas with another R.A.F. couple at the base near Lincoln. Happy memories. Maggie,

Whatsmore my husband was one of the R.A.F officers who was at one of the corners of the catafalque. I am proud to have been there and proud that my husband was chosen to be where he was. it was an honour for him. It was fitting that Churchill was "lying in state " The British people owed him so much and the proof was the number of people who filed past in respect.
