The Airfields of Britain Conservation Trust

The Airfields of Britain Conservation Trust was established to acknowledge the enormous and unique contribution airfields have made in numerous spheres since 1909. A memorial is intended to be erected at each known disused airfield site in Britain to provide a permanent reminder for future generations.  In this case, the Bungay airfield memorial will be unveiled at the Norfolk and Suffolk Aviation Museum and is dedicated to the personnel and units that served at the nearby Bungay airfield.  This dedication includes the huge contribution made by the 446th Bombardment Group of the 2nd Air Division of the United States 8th Air Force which was based at Bungay from November 1943 until June 1945.
