One of my wife's Aunts, Margaret Elizabeth Waters (1925-2015) was in the Women's Land Army. According to family information, she met her future husband Bryan Kern Bailey (1908-1962) during an air raid (or a lone raider?) when they all took shelter in some Kentish woods. So battery or airfield perhaps?
Helpfully Bryan's gravestone gives his wartime military info as: Colorado TEC4 HHC 3rd Bn 264th Infantry. An earlier record gives his service number as 38085649.
Bryan was a skilled mechanic, the "go-to guy" to get anything repaired. Was he part of the deception around Dover to deflect from Normandy?
Maggie followed him to the States a year or so after he had been repatriated, and would always fiercely rebut the description War-Bride.
Now if you have researched family history, one of the first things you discover is that most of what were told varies between embellished and ouright lies.
So has anyone anyway of deciding where in Kent they might have been, and what was Bryan doing for the war effort? He never went into Europe, I am told, spent his whole war here.
Their daughter's visit this year has, unsurprisingly, be put back to next year for now. Would be a nice surprise to take her somewhere relevant.
