Dear Jeffrey
You have my admiration for the diplomatic and tactful construction of your
message. You also have my affirmation that I will abide by your request.
You were right to raise the issue in your original message; we must not
permit the memory of brave men (The Dam Busters) to be tainted.
I think Matthew 5.9 accurately applies to you !
Regards
Michael Jefferson
