    On a motoring forum I frequent, someone mentioned Tarrant Rushton airfield in a thread about the Berlin airlift, and a poster mentioned that his late father flew from there to Arnhem.
    Turned out his father was none other than Lt. Graham Wadsworth of 1st Airborne Recce, awarded the Bronze Star by the USAicon for his actions at Arnhem. He was also one of the small number from Recce that got evacuated across the river.
