Such a very touching story about Jackie. In the midst of the nightmare at those time he could easily have ran off. But of course he chose to stay and be a great part of Albert's life, and all the pals there. Such a shame of course he was injured, but greatly he came through that. I had heard of this story before as I have friends in Johannesburg, they were told of this in their school years.
