Interview with Mr.Ings

We had to interview Mr. Ings. Mr. Ings is a British solider who was a railway engineer who was called into the army. He was already in the Territorial Army so he went straight into the army as an engineer. He was put on an island off the coat of Britain. It was his job to fix the antiaircraft funs when the broke. After he finished on the island he was involved in d-day. During d-day he was asked to watch a young solider but he was killed. Later in the war he was working in Germany and a German sergeant surrendered to him. His unit was also tasked with capturing a German rocket factory. When he and his unit went into the rocket factory all of the workers and the scientists surrendered to him and the German scientists agreed to help them learn about the rockets. By the end of the war he was a sergeant. At the start of the interview I asked him to tell everybody a bit of information about him and what he did during the war. I think that we could have controlled the interview a bit better because after I asked him the first question he kept talking for the majority of the interview so we could have tried to intervene so that other people could ask some questions. To improve on this we could try to learn how to cut in if somebody talks for to long without being too rude.
