TRIBUTE TO ONE OF "THE FEW" - A GREAT HERO, AND A GREAT CHARACTER

Posted at 23-10-2012 by: The StoryVault Team

Sad news of the passing of William Walker, who was the oldest surviving Spitfire pilot from World War Two.  He was 99 years old, and last year published a book of poetry!   William gave an interview for StoryVault several years ago, and so at least some of his extraordinary stories will survive way into the future.  He was a wonderful man - with an obvious joy for living.  Our sympathy goes to his family and friends.
