Hello all.
Just signed up for a year and who knows maybe longer. I am interested in my Dad's RAF service. He was a radar operator and heavily involved on the Chain Home system. So hopefully some of you old sages will be able to help with my research.
Cheers,
Nick.

Welcome Nick

In a previous life I was a Radar Fitter / Tech ,but even then CH was history

There is a section of the forum which has info on radar sites. Do you know where he was stationed?

Welcome to the forum Nick

The Imperial War Museum Collection has some good images of Chain Home equipment which may be of interest:

I have his full service record so can identify most sires that he worked at . I do know he was on the scopes the day of the Amiens Prison break and also on D Day.
