Flight Lieutenant Arthur Hagues DFC

Flight Lieutenant Arthur Hagues DFC

Aged 97. Last remaining man alive from his squadron.

A local and indeed national legend.

A total joy to spend an hour with him earlier. How is it possible that so much was given? Arthur just laughed off what he did as three years of great fun. One of the crew drank himself to death within a few years of the Second World War ending. Tells us all we need to know.

Incredible. Heroic. Crazy. Humbling.
