Paul Lelaud
France 1942-1944
I couldn't see the four fires, but I could smell them, the scent
of burning paraffin and wood coming thickly in waves of smoke across
the field. My heart started thumping again. Surely if we could
smell the fires, others could as well. A German patrol would smell
them for sure!
Then I was aware of a large shape looming up in the night sky, its
wings wide. It was the biggest thing I had ever seen. There were
no lights showing on it. Down, down, down it came, lower and lower.
I could hear the sound of its engine slowing and I thought with
alarm, "If it goes any slower it will crash in the field, and
what will we do then?"
