You're Top Poster: #74   | New Member I was bombed out in Swansea, Wales ( my birthplace) and my mother killed during the last air raid on Swansea, 1943. Worked for Bristol Aeroplane Co. ( now BAC ) 1956 to 1967 then came to the USA to work on the Apollo moon landing program in Houston. Now retired and living in Denver CO and starting to write my memoirs. I will need some help about air raids so will be posting questions as soon as I figure out how! Honoured to be accepted as a member. Last edited by wmct10ft; 09-04-2008 at 05:35 AM.
