Filming Tips

God bless you and Philip. If it wasn't for your bravery and Philip's sacrifice an entire generation of English people (including me) may not have existed or grown up in the fashion that we did. In the proper English fashion. There is a special place in heaven for you my friend, and I sincerely hope you will be able to say hello to your friend once again and share some good times. Once again, God bless you for your service and your sacrifice.
Martin

Please tell Sam we shall be forever grateful for Phillip and all the brave English men of the Second World War. Thank you.
Mary, USA.
