I left 570 in May/45 - to Warrington for shipment home. Eve had left Silver End a week  ahead of me. I assumed she was on the ocean by then. I still regret how I was rushed out in a matter of a few hours, hardly time to say goodbye to my friends  or get addresses. All they seemed to want was to certain that I didn't walk off  with Govt. goods. Typical of the Red Tape Wallers though. On arrival at Warrington I had barely found my bunk when I was ordered to report immediately  to the office. I thought it must be word of Eve so I rushed over. Instead it turned out to be snottily ground type WINCO who accused me of stealing the air force navigation watch I had been issued with earlier. He demanded that I hand  it over. I finally made him phone Ted Woods at 570 who confirmed that I had  turned the pesky thing in. So much for the Hero's return.
