If anyone is interested in an old army canvas rucksack I have been given one to sell for an animal rescue centre.It is a heavy framed rucksack and am told it was in use in the 40s. I live in Leicester but my family are in the south yorkshire area. I would like a small donation for the rescue centre for it.
I can be contacted on email m.toach@ntlworld.com

I have a campaign chest that refers to the East Yorkshire regiment.
The name on the chest appears to be
W Whitehead, there is a first initial but we can no longer read it. No date on the chest
Can you supply and information about this person.

Good afternoon,
I would like to formally invite you to attend the Haworth 1940s weekend next year. The event will be held 17th, 18th May and will be the second year that we are raising money for SSAFA. This year we raised £19,000 for the charity.

Thank you

Best wishes

Stephen

Greetings to your members.

We have extensive databases on our site, including one on RAF Bomber Command which has over 73,000 records.

I am intrigued by a mention of several of your chaps killed on 15 August 1940, but there's no further information on what happened and why it should be part of the Bomber Command record. Does anybody have any info on this?

The names we have are

Corp F White
Private C Whittleton
Private T Round

If anyone has the story, we'd be honoured to publish it as part of our site.

Regards

Lots of uniforms, costumes, a small parade, street dancing, themed stalls, street food, period vehicles, fun and frivolity, in the actual setting for the 2016 Universal Studios Dad’s Army film. We would like to warmly welcome your group along for the day. Please email me back if you would like to attend:
