    On a crescent shaped Greek island, they have recently discovered a rare find - a Minoan town. Half of this island has been mined away, however, as it was a caldera, and so I would like you to answer me this: What is the name of the island, what is the name of the Minoan town, and how does it relate to the British air force?
