Battle of Britain history from one who was there.
RAF Public Relations:
Thank you for your message, (thread?) If you think RAF News would be interested, then please go ahead with your proposal, but remember, Kirton was a training station, not front line, and nothing spectacular happened there that BofB Day morning, except that I well remember it all.
After passing OSB in summer of '40, I only wanted Intelligence, and that had just been closed to WAAF for an interesting reason. It was over 2 years before it opened to us again. I passed as Intelligence Officer Feb '43, and was posted to Bletchley Park, where one of the first things I saw was recce photos of the invasion barges, hundreds of them, piled high with war materiel, all lined up along the inner waterways of the French coast across the Channel. Invasion was very real at that time, and the Few saved us. God bless them all.
