Staff Sergeant P.W.B. Musitano, Glider Pilot Regiment

Glad you liked the write up. Hope he had a wonderful rest of his life. Did he tell you any stories about Rennes? Any details you remember would be great.

 

Yes he had a great life
he ran a hotel on a boat for a few years, with 10 cats and dogs and 2 monkeys lol
he then ran a pub which he did till he retired
and partied every night
it was a pub called The Ship in Padstow
an old Pirate ship
it was the most beautiful and enchanting town
He and my granmother only had my Father
I am trying to fill in all the gaps

Sadly Bill never told me any stories I can remember,
other than the time the germans captured him.
But it was much more elaborated than reality
as he said it was a cannon that dented his back
or at least thats what I remember
he would have done this, he was always making up jokes
teaching me naughty sailor songs to annoy my Mother

I would ask him to tell me stories,
and like my father who was a submariner they said they couldnt discuss anything
as they signed the official secrets act,
I know my great great granfather was a gunner
I know my great grandfather was in the army but dont know what he did
I am going to apply to MD to release all the secret stories about all 4 of them
This site is amazing

Many many thanks
