Re: 8th & 9th AAF Bases in Norfolk
Geez Alex, that's like asking "How big is BIG". Have you tried Google?
Here's a few to start, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Norfolk_airfields https://www.discovernorfolk.co.uk/st...world-war-681/ https://www.invisibleworks.co.uk/ww2...ds-in-norfolk/ https://www.discovernorfolk.co.uk/st...air-bases-196/ |

I have two different lists of Air Bases the USAAF used in Britain during WW 2 (both downloaded from the 'net). If you send me a PM with your e-mail I will send them over to you. If anyone else is interested you can do the same Cheers Stig |

Re: 8th & 9th AAF Bases in Norfolk
Thank you both,
The details from the www that you so kindly provided do not however show any links to which Groups were at which airfield as far as I could see, perhaps I am missing something ? That said, I am greatful to you both for your time and effort . Thank you Alex |

Re: 8th & 9th AAF Bases in Norfolk
Hi Alex. I don't know whether Stig's lists link groups to bases but these are the 2nd and 3rd Div. bomb groups in Norfolk (and Suffolk); useful for unit designators too.
The only other operational units in Norfolk were E. Wretham---359FG Bodney---352FG 802RG(P) / 25BG---Watton 803BS / 36BS----Sculthorpe/Oulton There were several Eighth AFSC, supply and HQ etc. organisations in the county too. The Ninth AF didn't have any operational units in Norfolk. Regards Nick Last edited by Buckeye30; 29th May 2020 at 15:54. |
