Goals Quote by Jeremy Duns
““The Commander had dragged him along on a ‘fact-finding mission’ to meet him and a few others in the Service last year, but the only facts he had found were that England was still as cold and dreary as it had been when he had left it as a child and that British intelligence was run by pompous asses.””
