A British Teenager\’s Experience of World War II – 75th Anniversary Special Presentation
January 4, 2020 @ 1:00 pm - 2:00 pm
Born in the County of Norfolk England in 1928, Mick Dawson left Litcham Secondary Modern School at the age of 14, December 1942. A wartime airfield for the American Army Air Force was under construction nearby and Mick got a job with the electrical contractor there as an apprentice. The 392nd BG group with their B-24s occupied the base from August 1943 to end of the War in Europe. During that time Mick had a front row seat to life on the airfield and the habits of the “Yanks” that took up residence there. Join us for a first person telling of what life was like for a British teenager during the Second World War. Presenter: Mick Dawson
