Re: Loss of 3 Hurricanes of 85 Sqn 20 May 1940

Hi Peter

I have to respond. As you are aware, I do have an axe (albeit a little one) to grind. You say that you have little interest in what was published back in 1995 - obviously referring to 'Twelve Days in May' - but that did not prevent you from having access to all our research material (many years of mainly original research from many primary sources), which has apparently not been acknowledged in your book (sorry, I haven't seen a copy so this may be incorrect).

Of course errors were made in 'Twelve Days' and, as you say research moves on, but mangnanimity is surely free. I don't wish to continue the fall-out, so that's my final word (I hope!)

Amen
Brian
