For Christmas
The Shepherd is a wonderful Christmas story, if you've never heard it read by Alan Maitland of CBC Radio, click on the YouTube link. Enjoy.
The Shepherd is a 1975 novella by Frederick Forsyth.
The Shepherd relates the story of a De Havilland Vampire pilot, going home on Christmas Eve 1957, whose aircraft suffers a complete electrical failure en route from RAF Celle in northern Germany to RAF Lakenheath in Suffolk. Lost in fog and low on fuel, he is met and led (or shepherded) to a disused RAF dispersal field by the pilot of a De Havilland Mosquito fighter-bomber of World War II vintage, who has apparently been sent up to guide him in.
