Alec was in the RN Submarine Service during WW2, and he was a chef (he remembers that after five days the bread would turn green and so he would have to cut off the edges, dip it in water and put it back in the oven). He never really felt nervous on the submarines but if he heard the air raid sirens while he was on leave at home he would run to the nearest pub and seek comfort in a pint of beer. He felt more safe in the pub than in a shelter! This is his story
