Whakarāpopototia te tuhinga:  Ko tētahi kaihautū toa o te Pakanga Tuarua o te Ao i ora i te tata ki te 70 o ngā misioni ki ngā Tiamana, ā, kei te noho tonu ia i roto i te kōpaki i te tau 90, kei te whawhai ia mō tōna oranga i roto i te hōhipera i muri i tana tukinga e tētahi kaihautū i patua, i rere. E whakapono ana a Doug Gregory, 92, e haere ana ki nga toa i te wa i patua ai ia e tetahi Nissan hiriwa i waho o te teihana hinu i Blackfield i Hampshire. Ko te paerata RAF o mua, kei a ia tonu ana raihana katoa ki te rere, i whakawhiwhia ki te Whaiti Rererangi Motuhake i muri i tana oranga i nga miihana 67 ki te Pakeha Nazi i te Pakanga Tuarua o te Ao. I ora ano ia i te mate toto i te roro i te tau 1947 a ka mutu tana mahi hei paerata rererangi i te tau 90. I ora a Doug Gregory, he toa toa, tata ki te 70 nga misioni puta noa i Tiamana, a i whakawhiwhia ki a ia te Tohu Rererangi Motuhake. Kei te hōhipera ia i tēnei wā i roto i tētahi āhuatanga tino nui i muri i tana tukinga me te rere i Hampshire. I kawea a Mr Gregory ki te Whare Hauora o Southampton i muri i tana whara i te mahunga, a, e whakapono ana kei te tino raruraru. E ai ki te pirihimana, e whakaarohia ana e rātau he tukinga me te rere, nā te mea kāore i mutu te motokā i muri i te tūtukitanga. Heoi i kī mai rātau, i haere mai tētahi motokā wahine ki ngā pirihimana i muri tata mai. I hokona mai e Mr Gregory tētahi niupepa i tētahi kaihoko niupepa, ā, ka tīmata ia ki te haere ki te kāinga i te wā i patua ai ia e tētahi Nissan hiriwa i te ata o te Mane. I patua a Mr Gregory e tētahi motokā kāore i mutu ki waho o te teihana hinu i Blackfield i Hampshire. I katia tētahi wāhanga o te rori i te wā e tirotirohia ana e te pirihimana te tūtukitanga, ā, tata tonu ki te rima haora ngā pirihimana i noho ai ki te wāhi. I tae atu hoki rātau ki tētahi toa tata o Tesco Express, ā, i tono rātau kia kite i ngā pikitia o te CCTV mēnā kua hopukina te tūtukitanga e te kāmera. I tangohia he whakaata whatiwhati i kitea i te huarahi hei tirotiro. I te 90 o ona tau ka kii te kaitoha ka mutu tana mahi hei paerata rererangi engari ka rere tonu ia. He mema a Mr Gregory o te RAF i te Pakanga Tuarua o te Ao, ā, i ora ia i te maha o ngā misioni i runga i te rohe o te Manahi. I whakaahuatia ia i te tau 1945...
