From sky to earth for Liberty I fell.

COMMENTS OF THE POEM

I remember the poem Knights of Arnhem being printed in the Sunday Graphic in 1944 I would like a copy of it. I remember his poem on those who fought the Battle of Britain printed in the same paper. " These are not what their fathers were. The wear long hair. and while we heave a gentle sigh they shoot a brace of bombers down"
