George "Johnny" Johnson Video

Evening gents
A few weeks ago I was very privileged to meet a number of RAF pilots, all of whom were active during WW2. One of them was George "Johnny" Johnson who was a bombardier on the Dambusters raid, more specifically on one of the Lancasters that hit the Sorpe.
The event organizers helped me to get a copy of his talk on DVD from one of the people who was recording it and I've uploaded a cheap and nasty part of it - it's low res with a dumb demo logo emblazoned on it from the "free" DVD software that I have on my stupid laptop here - but I hope you enjoy it all the same.
When I get back to NZ and get setup I'll make a much better copy of it.
It's 78MB so please don't stream from my website as they'll get grumpy with me
