Wing Commander Bob Doe - Telegraph
 
Sad news
he was called on to provide his recollections in one or two documentaries that I've seen, he came across as a modest and extremely likeable man.
 
:salute:
 
RIP W/Cdr Doe.
 
What a man what a life :salute:

Reading the obituary it ocurred to me how many of the greatest Aces werent the best pilots. Bob Doe barely got his wings and probably in a peacetime airforce wouldnt have made the grade but he turned out to be a great fighter pilot and a great leader of men.
 
Always liked Bob Doe. Saw a bunch of interviews with him and read a bit of what was written about him. Was not shy about saying what he was and wasn't. Neat interview too. Sad to see he is gone but he left a pretty good legacy.

Third wife. Anybody see that? Busy guy.
