Why name ranges after women?
Can anyone shed light on why these ranges were named after women; Rose Hearty, Donna Nook and of course Pam Bray? Were they war heroes, celebities or just local girls that aircrew used to shoot their load at :E

In the case of Donna Nook, the place was so called before the range (and its preceding decoy and diversion landing field) was established. I've just checked the 1891 OS map, and it's Donna Nook then. If she was a local girl, she'd have been no spring chicken when the range opened. ;) adr |
Remember when we used a formation callsign of 'Kebab' - it always made me chuckle when contacting Donna :O
|
Anne Dross, that famous Carribean whore tech. Yeah, I know it's tenuous!

Donna was Spanish She arrived from the north with the Amarda. Obviously stopped off for a bit of nookie later changed to Donna (s) Nook.

And on the continent... don't forget Polly Gonn, or any of those Vlie Whores.
