The 92-year-old sister of a World War Two pilot who went missing in action has been reunited with his wedding ring after more than 70 years.

Flt Sgt John Thompson's plane crashed in the mountains in north-east Albania whilst on a "secret mission" to aid local anti-Nazi fighters in 1944.

Local man Jaho Cala found the ring in 1960 and kept it - afraid to show it to the then-communist authorities.
