I found this charming but unremarkable little note whilst sorting my late mother's personal effects a little while ago. It was written by my grand father Sgt. Jack Shales around mum's 11th birthday in 1943. My mother always said that he had trained many of the men lost at Arnhem during "Market Garden" and that this had affected him very badly. This note seems to back this up. Does anyone have any idea where I might find more information on the early days of the airborne school or know any books I might look out for? This is outside my normal sphere of interest but interested I am.
Thanks for any help.
Cheers
Steve
