Whakarāpopototia te tuhinga:  I ngaro a Ian Joll i te mea i whakaarotia kua mate ia i muri i tana tukinga i tana rererangi ki te takutai o te Netherlands, engari i ora ia i te aitua kia hoki mai ki Gravesend. I te wa i whakatuwheratia ai e Mabel Joll te tatau o mua kia kite i tana tama a Ian ka hemo ia, i te whakapono kua kite ia i tetahi wairua. Tekau meneti i mua ake nei kua riro i a Mrs Joll he waea waea e kii ana ki a ia ko tana tama, Squadron Leader Joll, kei te 'kua ngaro, e whakapono ana kua mate' i muri i tana hinganga i tana rererangi i runga i te takutai o te Netherlands i te wa o te whakaeke i tetahi rererangi Tiamana i te tau 1940. Heoi anō, i ora a Sq Ldr Joll i te tukinga, ā, i muri i te hikoi i ngā maero i te takutai, ā, i te whakatikatika i tētahi kaipuke kia whakahokia ia ki Ingarangi, ka tae atu ia ki ōna mātua ki te oha atu. I puta mai tana korero whakamiharo i te wa i tukuna ai ana mētara - tae atu ki te Distinguished Flying Cross (DFC) - mo te hokomaha me tana papamuri i whakaatuhia.

I tētahi whakamōhiotanga o mua ake nei, i korerotia ki te kapa katoa kia kaua rawa e tukua te pūtirotiro tūmataiti o te waka rererangi kia taka ki ngā ringa o te hoariri. Whai muri i ngā whakamātautau kāore i tutuki ki te whakatū i tōna Blenheim ki te ahi, ka whakatau a Sq Ldr Joll ko te mea anake hei mahi ko te kopere ki te ipu wahie o te waka rererangi. I haere a Sq Ldr Joll me tana kaipatu pere mo nga maero i reira i tutaki ai raua ki tetahi kaikawe Kariki, i akiakihia e raua kia mauria raua ki Ingarangi. I 16 noa iho nga ra i mua i te tīmatanga o te nekehanga o nga hoia 300,000 o nga Allied i etahi maero ki raro i te takutai i Dunkirk. I whakatere te kaipuke ki Harwich, Essex, ka haere a Sq Ldr Joll ki te whare o ona matua i Gravesend i Kent. I kī a Oliver Pepys, o Spinks auctioneers e hoko ana i ngā mētara a Sq Ldr Joll, 'Kua whakatuwheratia e tōna māmā te tatau, ā, kua hemo tonu. 'E kore tekau meneti i mua i riro ia he waea mai i te Air Tāhuhu kī e pouri ratou ki te whai ki te whakamōhio i tona Pilot Officer Joll i ngaro whakapono patua. 'Kua whakaaro pea ia...
Ko Ian Joll he Kaihautū Squadron i rere i te Bristol Blenheim light bomber. I werohia i te wā o te whakaeke i te rererangi Tiamana me te tūtukitanga tūtukitanga.
