REX----You seem to have the power to start me to thinkingg----
THAT is dangerous. The sentence above reminds me of the 
comb I bought in a store [where is not in my "memory bank"!]
I had paid for it & stepped aside when a man next to me bought 
a comb like mine---[Price???] I do remember it was about half 
what I paid. That is the only time I knew I had been had!!
W [the G.Is] more or less ask for it--hand out a pound & say
"Take it out of this." I usually had a pocket full of change when
I got back on the base during the early days of my visit in England.

 I seem to remember that some RAF pilots were trained over here.
[?????]---Often wondered how they were treated money-wise.
