A truly amazing man who died yesterday aged 97.  If his life story was made into a film you would never believe it and think it pure Hollywood.

BBC News

If you don't know who this great man was, Documentary
The Battle of Damnation Alley, 25th January 2015
\'You are hereby awarded the Military Cross, posthumously, for an act of exemplary gallantry during active operations against the enemy on land.\'

Amazing guy, daredevil and yet very down to earth.

I recommend his book http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1299333.Wings_on_My_Sleeve and I really hope they will make a film about him. What a guy!
