AVM Peter
Scully (Rtd) has recorded a number of excellent interviews with veterans over
the years. The interviews cover various aspects of wartime including initial
sign-up, training, war experiences and returning home.
Peter Scully’s
conversational style adds a wonderful element to the interviews. His own knowledge
of wartime events means he inevitably asks the right questions and reveals real
insight into the experiences of war – both good and bad, happy and sad.
This first
interview is with Peter Isaacson AM, DFC, AFC, DFM. Peter’s story starts with
his school years and his first job with a newspaper which was to translate
later in life to a publishing career. He goes on to talk about training as a
Pilot in Canada, and various wartime stories including how his crew used to bet
on who got closest to the target on bombing raids.
