John Bampton of the Royal Air Force was born in England but now lives in Sussex. He fought in the World War II battle as part of the 59th squadron. Bampton, who is now 91-years old, tells CHSJ News it's an emotional occasion for him because there aren't very many of veterans left, but it's also a reminder that it's all been worthwhile.
