Dear John Douglas, thank you for fighting for our freedom. Unfortunately, you had to give your young life for that. Amazing how you became an ace in 1 month. We continue to work out your life course and career. I hope to be able to honor you one day in the parade on Remembrance Sunday in London. Rest in peace in Windeekse soil.
