One of his most famous quotes...."I'm not allowed to say how many planes joined the raid, but I counted them all out and I counted them all back. Their pilots were unhurt, cheerful and jubilant, giving thumbs-up signs."

I remember that so well.

He was a very clear, concise and unaffected reporter.
Sad he has died so young.
Also sad that Anthony Howard has died. I had a lot of trust in what Anthony Howard had to say.
Wise and informative.
