When I was about 12 years old, I saw Hess shot down and interned. We had just moved to Glasgow in the early part of the war and there were 2 or 3 houses along from us and a chap called Scott, an officer in the ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ Guard was on duty the evening Hess was shot down and the ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ Guard was sent out to apprehend the German flyer.
Mr Scott interegated the flyer who refused to identify himself and eventually he was taken by the ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ Guard by a military department and on leaving Mr Scott, the flyer handed him a fountain pen and said "you'll probably value this when you learn who I am"
