I opened fire through the door and commotion and shouts came through the door. I changed magazines and gave another burst, trying for the lock. I still couldn't get in the door and went back to the side of the house to consult McLaren, who was still holding the two prisoners. Suddenly a figure appeared, having jumped from an upstairs window. As he landed, he opened fire at the same time as I did. He hit me in the thigh and I dropped to the ground. I killed him, but not before he had hit Jimmy McLaren in the body, who also fell to the ground. He also hit one of his own men. Lt. Ellis with the rest of the Platoon then appeared, and eventually blew in the door with a 36 grenade. This ended the attack on the farmhouse" Now in his late 80's, Mr Jones lives in Somerset £180-250 | Nil |
