Re: AVM John Thornett Lawrence Battle of Britain RIP
Hi Andy,
Sorry to hear that he declined your request.
I corresponded with him 5 or 6 years ago and he was kind enough to let me visit him a few times.
He described his part in the BoB as a small part of a long career and didn't understand the interest in it.
I also tried to encourage him to join the BoB fighter Association but he had no interest in doing so.
The Obit has got a date wrong. The incident that they describe as happening in November 1941 actually happened in November 40.
Regards
Gerry
