I sure hope no self-respecting WIXer proposes to act as defense counsel.
Don't worry Gregory
No way,
How about bringing the big wigs in the Dutch AF to trial, those who were in charge in the sixties and seventies when all those substantial wrecks were scrapped after recovery. Last week I met one of the crew who was present during the recovery of the Liberator near Lelystad in 1975 and he also remarked what a fantastic recovery that was and when I told him that so little was actually saved, he was mad as hell. I immediately liked him.
It's not the boys at the workfloor who are to blame but the ones at the top with egg on their faces and no knowledge whatsoever.
