Roy Colchester sketches
Please see http://johnfunk.com/WWII/index.html then look under Suffolk, RAF Mendlesham, USAAF Station 156, England - 1943 to Dec 5, 1957 for Mendlesham memories, photos and information about the 34th Group.
Under "Sketches by Roy Colchester" you will see local Mendlesham resident Roy Colchester taking about and also sharing his unique record of the planes at Mendlesham airfied.
Thank you Roy for sharing this and also John for enabling us all to enjoy Roy's work.
Sadly Roy passed away peacefully on March 4, 2020, aged 91 years.
Roy was born and lived his life in Mendlesham and had so much knowledge about the Parish, Parish Council, Mendlesham Charities, School, History, Farming and so many other roles and areas of involvement. He will be missed.
