I think she did this before her illness set in on her also. |

He is best remembered for his lead role as Wing Commander Guy Gibson in the film, The Dam Busters. 11 years earlier, Todd had parachuted into France on D Day, and would later be in the film The Longest Day about D Day playing opposite the character playing him, which I think was taking a bridge in France from the enemy. He was awarded the OBE in 1993. |
