A few years ago, the daughter of F/O Noble wrote here asking about the loss of his Halifax aircraft and crew on 14 May 1943. Unfortunately her contact details were lost in a server crash. We are related to his wireless operator. If she sees this we would be delighted to hear from her.

Visitor Comments: I have just got my Dad's service record and discovered that he was at Tempsford in 1942 (as an anti-aircraft gunner I think).  His name was William (Bill) Dudson.  I wonder if anyone knows him?  I wonder what he did?  He was there between 6.3.42 and 26.7.42.  I had never heard of this base before today - I live in Australia.
