Memories of Service 1 - James McQueen
Web (Full Length) – 2015
When they took me back they put me in a cell on my own. I was just 21 at that time, and that was a low point when I discovered myself alone, because I hadn’t learned to cope with solitude like that.– James McQueen
We only ever did two trips, one to Osnabrück and back and then the second one we got shot down by a Messerschmitt 110.– James McQueen
..when Patricia (Stroud) suggested the idea of filming some of our local veterans, it was a no brainer. I said 'let's get on with it'.– Director David Blyth, quoted in RSA Review, Spring 2015
