How interesting, a number of people we know used to work at the RAE, many in their old age now. I remember watching the show from the hill next to the canal long before they started to prevent people from doing so. We even had a lift in an army jeep one hot summer because mum was struggling with my little brother (now 6.2ft) in a pushchair across the rough terrain of Aldershot common.
Do share the film if you’re able to. That will be very interesting.
I hope to write some history posts on here.
My dad has some photos that could be interesting. I'll have a chat with him about those. My mum recently gave me this badge that belonged to her dad.
That's in good condition too, the colours have not faded.
