A small service was held at Derwent Reservoir today to mark the Dambusters
raid. This lake was used for the practice runs because of its twin towers and... well I'm sure you've all seen the film. |

I have a special interest in the Dambusters raid. (The reason?, see my surname in my sig) Thanks in advance, Jeff Cochrane - VK4BOF Innisfail, Queensland, Australia |

(The reason?, see my surname in my sig) Thanks in advance, Jeff Cochrane - VK4BOF Innisfail, Queensland, Australia When I saw your address I thought that you might have had a connection with Les Knight's, or Mick Martin's crews, then one of the other crews. But no. I can only assume you must have some connection to British nobility namely Air Vice-Marshal the Hon. R A Cochrane. A survivor of Les Knights crew F/Sgt. R Kellow spent the rest of his life in my fair city, Winnipeg Canada. Sadly he died before I found that out. I have his very good book in my library.
