Relationship with monty was volatile because he believed that monty changed his plans during a battle without informing the royl air force. He was promoted to the 2nd tactical airforce command to make ready for overlord.

He was to meet Aircrew in the Officers' Mess Ante Room but was boycotted by all the navigators in protest at the Vulcan crash in Oct 1956 at London Airport when he took the co-pilots seat at the end of the record breaking flight from Australia. Only the pilot and co-pilot survived! No action was taken against them. Jim M. I was at RAF Bruggen Germany in Sept 1960 when Broady
