  • He was once asked if he hated the Luftwaffe pilots, to which he replied

    "I didn't hate them, I just saw them as doing the same job as me but working for another firm!"

    He also said something along the lines of

    "I wasn't doing it for King & Country, I was doing it for my Mum. I just didn't want the Germans coming over here."

    A top man and along with many of his generation, someone to whom we should be eternally grateful.

    RIP Bob
