"I Am Proud To Meet Such Men" Says-
KING ON TOUR OF SECRET R.A.F. BASES
By A SPECIAL REPRESENTATIVE
The King, recently, concluded a two days' tour of R.A.F. stations in the North of England and the Midlands. He received at first hand accounts of hombing and leaflet raids on Germany from men who took part in them, and created an historic precedent when he decorated five men in an aerodrome hangar. After the tour the King said, "I am proud to have met such men." Among those to whom he spoke were:
Pilots who bombed Cuxhaven early in the war; The first men to fly over enemy Berlin and Potsdam;
A South African pilot who sank a U-Boat.
His Majesty also talked to the his smals-they were senseless, pilots who dew blind for six hours numbed with cold.
