| All:<br/> <br/> 'Ditto' Rick's comments. A unique and well-told account of what must have been a harrowing experience.<br/> I can't imagine the odds overcome to survive - certainly a tribute to the French who helped him (and others).<br/> <br/> Win Bryson<br/> PS: And I'll never complain about sore feet again. <br/><br/><br/>
