Re: Oxford N4647 14 (P) AFU

Have various pieces of 14 (P) AFU from WAAF Joyce Trovey whs served on the unit at Ossington and then Banff:

28 July 1942:
Had to break the news to Betty that 'Jim' Brown had been killied - she worked in the watch office it was her day off. We heard the news in the station HQ from the crash crew. Their flesh had either been burnt or melted it was quiet up setting I can tell you.
When they replaced the water tower it was painted in chequerboard style rather than just plain white.
