52nd Airborne will become famous soon enough
Having received the OK from Lee and my fellow Moderators, here we go:

Polite ones only please!

The story so far can be seen here...

http://ww2site.com/forum/barracks/22...ord-story.html

Would it be possible

to not have a...

decision made without me

upsetting my son Randolph?

He was so desparate

to find his new

vocation in life that

he went off to

find out all he...

about a man that

could revitalise 8th Army

and bring it to

a small village called....

san francesco di paolo

which was held by Ghurkas

because nobody else wanted

to raise the balloon

to see for themselves...

just in case they

they were dogs with

leashes attached and no

fluffy dice dyed purple

attached to the mirror

of the sledge which

carried an anti-tank gun

which was without a...

supply of suitable ammunition

because the shells had...

been eaten by a

very very hungry mole

which was made of

plasticine and called Totoro

who knew where to

look to find the...

outsized camel which carried

those extra supplies that...

are needed at Tobruk

where could be found

many brave men who

fought like tigers when

when cornered like rats

in a barrel of

cheddar cheese and treacle

Which was so sticky

that flies could not

land on the surface

without being able to

they pestered soldiers eating

sink to the bottom

about the Romance Poets

who were waiting to

be read by diez

because they thought that

it might be about

the reanson why wales

was so far towards

the end of the...

(Looks like I will have fun in Gatwick tomorrow...)

struggle against the rest

led by Owain Glyndŵr

who was employed by

Babd and her sister

shelia who wore yellow

gartor when she sang

"Oh Danny Boy" accompanied

the bonzo dog doda

on his Swiss flugelhorn

and the Amazing Janet

Farquar the fourth,Duchess

of some little shack

called devonshire house, piccadilly

was the name of

the oldest living weasel

in the RAF's taskforce

"Surestrike" made up of

the best team of

whipper snappers that came

together to get this

coveted badge "5 Today"

to be worn by

aired on Saturday to

be repeated on Sunday..

so nobody should ever

have the opportunity to

miss an episode of

the woodentops who made

a special comeback edition

of The Muppet Show

in which Miss Piggy

made a pig of

Kermit and the two

old men in the

balcony seats threw large

bags of stale popcorn

at the swedish chef

who could not cook

stroganoff in a frying

pan that Gonzo found

in a dark cupboard

where the tiny mice

tried to make a

cheese souffle, but were

eaten by Fuzzie Bear

who had just arrived

from Brighton wearing a

lovely pink jump suit

that was so small

his feet blew up

a balloon so large

that it started to...

used as air-raid defense

which was in use...

aboard ships on D-Day.

to disrupt the enemy

and stop the strafing

of the troops on

the ships operating out

in the English Channel

that were protecting the

boys in rubber dinghies

from rampaging ducks and

elephants which were running...

amok in the open

fridge freezer section of

Iceland down the precint

in the quiet town

of bungay by

by the sea side
