THIS PAGE IS STILL BEING BUILT. MORE INFO TO FOLLOW.
Harry Banham worked in the Bath Admiralty. He was in No.4 patrol with Bob Bennet as sergeant. On the night of the Bath blitz the patrol was in Catherines Place helping Civil Defence find bodies and UXBs.
The training centre Harry refers to is one that was set up in a quarry in the Mendips around 1943.
Harry and his son Steve would like to thank Bob Millard for all his help and support in helping Harry obtain medals and other Aux related items post war. Bob's advice and support has been invaluable.
