Excerpt from In the Clouds Above Baghdad: Being the Records of an Air Commander
As I write 'this it is almost two years to a day since the date-palms of Fao slipped under the horizon and 'the steamer steadied on her course down the Gulf. The white torment of the desert is replaced by the view of a London square in Spring; life is respectable and comfortable and safe. The majority 0 us who have survived the war are no doubt doomed to die in our beds; when that moment arrives how we shall envy that gay company who went before, sword in hand and faces to the enemy, flower of a generation who With Time are gradually forgotten. Meanwhile we, their old companions, will not forget; we work, play, and make new friends, but we do not forget those gentlemen of England.
