MAY I ask if any of your readers have memories or photographs of any of the airfields within the county during the Second World War.

As an historian, I am writing a book on the airfields within the area which will be published in the autumn of 2006 titled Herefordshire and Worcestershire Airfields in the Second World War.

The book will also include a chapter on the civilian bombing of the two counties and I would further ask if anyone has photos or memories of that period. Any material sent will be copied and returned to the owner ensuring a mention in the book and a complimentary copy.
