I also seem to remember there was a possibility she may have been on some sort of undercover operation, and she may not have been alone in the plane. I think I also read when I was looking at her for another Quizzy, I think of Dave's a while back, that there was talk of her being shot down by so called friendly fire from our anti aircraft guns. |

Thinking the plane may have belonged to the enemy she was supposedly shot down by the guns of HMS Haslemere. If she had answered the request then it might have been a different ending. |

What was the item ? Why was the item so important ? |

| rustyruth Posts: 18775 Joined: 23rd Oct 2012 Location: England | Posted at 23:02 on 23rd September 2014 The item taken unlocked something that contained something important. |
