    Guess with Duxford out of commission until at least Tuesday updates will be few and far between unless volunteers and staff are allowed on site ! Seems Duxford is having a troublesome start to 2014 bring on the summer i say !

    These last images are from the same box and seem to suggest he was in service beyond 1945/6 ?

    Hi Adrian thanks for that the coloured photo is him and has an inscription to his wife date wedding anniversary 1944 I know by this time he was serving in Whitehall alongside Churchill something to do with reconnaissance photography He has an Oak leaf on one medal ribbon all i can say is that dads sister knew he was mentioned in dispatches There is ingraving around the medals once i have written it down i can post some more they could possibly be his parents ??

    Thanks Chris

    Okay Brian i look forward to your visits and post you always find something to photograph and talk about :eagerness:, although Wednesday & Friday don’t look that promising weather wise :rolleyes:. After a very serious accident i have only been once since end of July when my intended help me struggle around back end of last year just before Sally B came in from the cold, the only thing we watched land was a helicopter missed both main and Autumn shows so this was a must fix all through that hot summer we had that i spent indoors and in plaster so please keep up the fantastic work you and DCW post.
