| Comments.....An RAF veterans site with a difference. It is interesting! If you are an RAF veteran or interested in the heroic RAF airman of WW2 this site is worth a visit (or two!) Lots of good photographs and stories from war veterans, useful relevant RAF links and a developing museum of RAF wartime memorabilia. Initially the site aim was to gather info relating to web masters late fathers wartime service in the RAF. Now it is much more than that. In a short period of time the site has developed into a worthy addition to to the RAF "family" on line. The sister site WW2 Ex RAF Kenya is just as good and well worth a visit. | ||||
