I am doing some research on my Uncle's time at Grafton-Underwood,
near Kettering. He served in the 384th BG and remembers being sent to a Flak House or Red Cross Rest Home nearby...I just finished the new book
Flak Houses Then and Now; but it only covers a very few....
My interests in this is that - On the way to this Flak House, my Uncle lost
his wallet and reported it to the local police. All his buddies were making
fun of his loss and the chances of getting it back....Well after his return
to base , he was contacted by the police and they said they had his wallet
and contents! Uncle Levi went around and retrieved it...He asked who had
found it and they said a 8 or 9 year old in the village...Uncle Levi went
around to give his parents a reward for their sons honesty...The boy's
Mom said if you give it to me, I have to pay tax on it...So Uncle Levi
gave this boy a 10 pound reward. My interest is trying to find this
family.
