Tenby RAF memories saved in time


One of the last things Clifford Burkett did was write down his memories of Tenby's wartime rescue base for HistoryPoints. He died ...

last month, aged 92. He was based at Tenby before being hand-picked to take part in the D-Day operations in 1944. Mr Burkett provided valuable information for our new HiPoint about the RAF's Air Sea Rescue unit which operated from Tenby harbour in the Second World War. To read the story, scan the QR codes at the harbour office, or click here. His fascinating recollections of life at the base are on the Footnotes page.
