Hi John,
I've googled the Washington newletters, but it seems they are currently
unavailable, because the host RAF Watton history website is being
rebuilt. I will however keep it in mind and watch for when it comes back
online. I'll also make enquiries about them on aviation forums.
We lived at RAF Watton for quite a while, but my dad was on Washingtons
at nearby RAF Marham. By the time we were at Watton, he was involved
with the Canberra.
Thanks again for the pointer and sincere apologies for not replying sooner.
Regards
Paul
Cambridge U.K.
