Looking for any pictures of RAF base at Kalafrana where the workshops and armoury was and any staff. My father was there during that dreadful siege.

My father was also at Kalafrana during the siege, but he was in the marine craft section. His name is Frederick Percival Smart, (TAFF or TAFFY Smart)

dont suppose you have any photos from there? My dad had been in WW1 first R.N.A.S then into the R.A.F. Think he was down Kalafrana because of the Sunderlands that were there too.

Marsa Bus tragedy. 26th June 1940. My Grandfather was one of the two unidentified surviving passengers that was in the Bus bombed . His name was Spiro Attard. He got thrown out the back window of the bus. I would love more information on this. Any footage, pictures, anything really would be greatly appreciated. Thank you. Richard Fanale

My dad , ROLAND THORNTON was in the RAF , he was a flight engineer, in WW11 he went to Malta on The Ark Royal.
He suffered leg wounds in an air raid. He slept in a camp bed inside a palace. It was a bad time with many attacks and at one time my dad was announced ‘killed in action ‘ thankfully he wasn’t killed , he survived and returned to England much to the delight of his family who must have thought they would never see him again.
