  • USAAF AIRFIELDS Guide and Map Introduction
    USAAF AIRFIELDS Guide and Map Introduction During the Second World War, the East of England became home to hundreds of US airmen. They began arriving in 1942, with many existing RAF (Royal Air Force) airfields made available to the USAAF (United States Army Air Force). By 1943 there were over 100,000 US airmen based in Britain. The largest concentration was in the East of England, where most of the 8th Air Force and some of the 9th were located on near a hundred bases. The 8th Air Force was the largest air striking force ever committed to battle, with the first units arriving in May 1942. The 9th Air Force was re-formed in England in October 1943 - it was the operator of the most formidable troop-carrying force ever assembled. Their arrival had an immediate impact on the East Anglian scene. This was the 'friendly invasion' - a time of jitterbugging dances and big band sounds, while the British got their first taste of peanut butter, chewing gum and Coke. Famous US bandleader Glenn Miller was based in the Bedford area (Bedfordshire), along with his orchestra during the Second World War. Close associations with residents of the region produced long lasting friendships, sometimes even marriage. At The Eagle pub in Cambridge (Cambridgeshire), and The Swan Hotel at Lavenham (Suffolk), airmen left their signatures on the ceiling/walls. The aircraft of the USAAF were the B-17 Flying Fortress and B-24 Liberator - used by the Bombardment Groups (BG); and the P-51 Mustang, P-38 Lightning and P-47 Thunderbolt - used by the Fighter Groups (FG).

  • IWM Duxford Transforms Unseen Historic Rooms to Commemorate Its Role in the Battle of Britain 80 Years On
    IWM Duxford transforms unseen historic rooms to commemorate its role in the Battle of Britain 80 years on 13 July – 20 September 2020 #BattleOfBritain80 This summer, IWM Duxford will grant visitors access to newly transformed and previously unseen historic Second World War rooms to retell the story of the Battle of Britain in this 80th anniversary year. Through the opening of The Ops Block: Battle of Britain and reinterpreted areas of the museum, the story of the first major military campaign fought primarily in the air will be explored alongside the historical figures who helped steer the course to victory. Operating as a Sector Station during 1940, RAF Duxford provided support against the relentless assault of the German Luftwaffe during the Battle of Britain which saw intense fighting in the skies and attacks launched at airfields, towns and cities across the country. From 13 July, IWM Duxford will give visitors greater access to the historic site than ever before with the chance to step foot into the Second World War nerve centre of RAF Duxford and hear first-hand accounts of those who lived and worked here in the summer of 1940. Display cases, listening points and a dedicated People Stories Room will tell of the historical significance of The Ops Block and introduce visitors to key ground and air personnel including leading fighter pilot Douglas Bader and members of the Women’s Auxiliary Air Force. An authentic recreation of the 1940s Operation Room will provide a multi-sensory immersion into the tension felt on 15 September 1940, the most action-filled day at RAF Duxford during the Battle of Britain.
