Flt.Sgt. William Ivor Jones

Royal Air Force 221 Squadron

from:Harrow

Bill Jones was my Dad. Not much of his time in WW2 was spoken about. On the time he did, he recalled seeing his mate's parachute not open over Italy, aborted missions when they came into contact with Luftwaffe over the Adriatic, Greek communists shooting up the bar they frequented in Athens, the intense heat in Shaibah RAF base with men dying from heat exhaustion, spending two weeks on the piss in Shaibah, his memories of Alexandria and Cairo, the Palestinian airfield and landing strip being mortared by the Irgun just as they were landing.
