The airfield that they actually launched from on the day is Smeatharpe, Devon.
This is near Dunkeswell, Devon. Home of the only US Navy flying field during the war.
This is near Upottery (Tricky Warren), Devon. Home to the first 2 jets working-up prior to going to Kent to chase the flying bombs.
An interesting area!!
