Stress

We were responsible for giving weather information to fighter squadrons that would nip across the channel and then come back and they didn’t have any extra fuel. It was a tight schedule. They had to nip across and watch the time very well and turn around and come back. Now the trick was to tell them what the weather was going to be like at 17 minutes after 5 in the evening. Now they didn’t mean 27 minutes after 5. It was really dicey and I guess I did a fair bit of sweating until I heard they were back.
