Tail-End Charlie

So, during the world war Charlie was eating powdered egg (which is disgusting)  then he heard that the RAF were having proper eggs. So, Charlie joined the RAF only for the eggs. He only trained for a few weeks before he was sent on his first mission to Germany.

He was checked from the physio before actually going on the mission   first he was tail gunner and his nickname was Tail-End Charlie . Once he forgot to close the door and strap himself in and he nearly dropped out of the air craft and his mates were making fun of him for weeks.

Then, one night Charlie and his mates were relaxing. Then suddenly a Spitfire plane randomly came and started shooting the plane. The front window shattered. They were all okay but unfortunately some hit Charlie but he was  still okay. He was rushed to the RAF Hospital. Then later found out his jaw was broken. They didn’t want him to go back to war. So, they found him a new job as a desk officer.

Then after the war (6 months later) I finally found the love of my life.

A few years BBC Studio called me to do an interview and asked me a few questions. That how I became who I am today.
