The Albatross and the Elephant Eggs by HARRY BARTON
In early 1945 the war on the seas around Japan was at its height and Purbright, as officer of stores on an aircraft carrier, was kept busy looking after 500 elephant eggs, dodging kamikazes and finishing his pantomime. But, from his letters to his wife, it is plain to see that life was never quite the same after news of the atom bomb reached Purbright.

Fifty years ago, fighting broke out in the streets of Vienna between Social Democrats and the Dollfuss government. Those three days of fighting became a prologue to the Second World War. For a small group of people -Hugh Gaitskell , Kim Philby ,
