      My father was a prisoner of war from July 1943. He was the pilot of a Halifax bomber 51 Squadron RAF

      He was shot down near the Dutch border and parachuted to safety - the sole survivor of his crew

      At the war's end he married my mother Marjorie Mcquade, an English WAAF , and together they returned to New Zealand to live
