I was amazed to see the article about the auction of the medals. My father, George Smith was one of the men saved by John Dagg and his dog. My father was always grateful for those brave sheperds and dogs that saved his life and his crewmates lives that day. He passed away a few years ago. He always wanted to return to the site of the crash and thank the relatives of John Dagg and Frank Moscropp. I hope to make a trip there someday soon in his stead.
