I only discovered dad's secret life as a wartime SAS hero and a Nazi hunter after he had died

DAVID MOON WAS A SERGEANT IN THE ELITE UNIT

- LOUIS CORBETT

SIMON Moon always knew his dad was “something special” but he never connected the dots until, one day, a friend told him that his dad was a sergeant in the elite SAS.

Then, Simon decided to start uncovering the mystery of why his dad would disappear for long stretches with little explanation.

His dad David, from Ashbourne, Derbyshire, joined the Army in 1939, and was posted with the Special Air Service after it was founded in 1941.

Yet to this day, Simon is still trying to piece together what his dad's life was like, as much of it remains shrouded in mystery.
