About 10 years ago a chance encounter led Bandy to be entrusted with a treasure trove of wartime notes, photos, paintings and ephemera that coalesced themselves into the memoirs of a WW2 RAF Nursing Orderley, LAC Harold Scrafield. A story unfolded through these papers of an older call up, wartime nursing, and travel through the Mediterranean area during the war. Further research found that one of 'Scra's' postings was to a secret medical mission in Yugoslavia. This was Maj Lindsay Rogers' SOE medical expedition to Titos Partisans organised by Fitzroy Maclean.
