Fascinating story about a WW2 Canadian pilot who flew secret night missions over Norway to supply resistance fighters. It is sad that these stories are being lost as more and more WW2 vets pass.

All that is gold does not glitter,
Not all those who wander are lost;
The old that is strong does not wither,
Deep roots are not reached by the frost.
