The forgotten members of the RAF

Lee Oliver at the National Archives at Kew has written about the AIR 29 Miscellaneous Records series on the archive's blog. These records concern other branches of the RAF in the Second World War, such as repair and salvage units, not as prominent to society as the various Spitfire and Bomber squadrons and their actions in the conflict.

My new book, Tracing Your Irish Family History on the Internet, is now available from Pen and Sword. My next Pharos Scottish course, Scotland 1750-1850: Beyond the Old Parish Registers, starts May 15th - see http://britishgenes.blogspot.co.uk/2013/04/scotland-1750-1850-beyond-oprs-starts.html. Time to smash a few brick walls...!
