The plan for this website project is to gather together as much information as possible of all the individuals who served in the wartime Air Forces during World War Two, who were born in, brought up in and/or lived in Cambridge before the war. Additionally airmen who made Cambridge their home after the war are also included, but the main priority is Cambridge people from before the war.
Though many people have been tracked down, and relatives or friends of others have too, which has provided a lot of information, some individuals or certain areas of details have proven difficult to discover.
Of course, if you can provide more about any of the men and women mentioned on this site I'd truly appreciate it. But there are some people who I have discovered very little about and their need is the greatest right now. others here I am now putting together some sort of picture of, yet i still require more info to make the record more complete.
If you can provide any snippet or lead about the following individuals, I'd very much like it if you will contact me please. Email me
