John got a his uncles medal form the war office last week.
When John was 14 he travelled by coach to the Dutch boarder where he stayed with the head of the Dutch resistance.
Eating cold ham, homegrown broad beans and new potatoes in the garden. John’s host remarked that his uncle had been buried in the garden.
Before John left the hosts wife asked John’s parents to sign the tablecloth. Later she embroidered the names into the cloth. This she did for everyone who had come to stay and visit the graves.
