Geoff was trained in the Intelligence Corp during the 2nd World War and having become tri-lingual would have been an ideal candidate to be a British Army spy or secret agent. The late Geoff could have easily become a double agent somewhere in Nazi occupied Europe. His knowledge of Russian would have also helped him on the Eastern Front. With his outstanding bravery we could have had a VC at '78'!
PS Geoff did teach O.Level and A.Level Russian!
