***WWII air lifts into bombed out London ... with planes landing every two minutes with critical food and supplies***

Are you sure you are not talking about the Berlin Air Lift - right after The Wall was built? I don't think there were enough relief supply planes in existence at the time of the London bombings to land there every two minutes.

The Berlin Airlift was in 1948-49, long before the wall was built.

You’re right! I should have said Berlin. I watched “DUNKIRK” and “The Battle of Britain” Sunday, and had London on my mind, all through that post!

Thanks, very much for the correction! The BERLIN AIR LIFT it was.
