Dear Sir, as I write this the final Air Atlanta / XL Airways 747 flight is around 2 hours from landing in Brize Norton. On behalf of everyone within our company who has been involved in the airlift over the last few years may I thank everyone who we have worked with to have made this operation a success. For those of us who have been lucky enough to have visited Ascension it has been an experience that we will never forget. With Thanks to you all
Simon Leighton and Claire Rendell

Hi Shari, I just read your request for information regarding the location of the American cemetery at Two Boats. There is a map showing the location in the archives. The location as far as I remember is, as you turn of the road through Two boats as if going to Major Ron's, the road splits, the sort of triangle of this split is where the graves were. I think there is actually a house on part of it now. My regards to all.

Apologies for not saying goodbye, never really got a chance to say thanks for your assistance. All the lads thoroughly enjoyed their stay and the hashes! Hope you enjoyed the entertainment at the BBQ, thought the theme worked well. Shame I didn't manage to catch you on the jeans for genes, but the memory lingers on. Hopefully we will be back within the next couple of years. Take care Eric
