Today a large group of CART members travelled to The British Resistance Museum located at Paham Airfield in Suffolk.
It was an amazing day and the members of BROM made us feel very welcome and supplied a great lunch.
A few of us spent the first few hours on paperwork research while the others got chatting to the on site experts.
A must see is their mock underground OB.
You can read more about the Museum here. Images from the day can be seen by members only on our secret members page.

Morning All,
THIS ONLY REALLY APPLIES TO PEOPLE CLOSE TO SWINDON.
Swindon Library is planning an event at the Central Library on 5th & 6th June 2010 and CART have been asked to take part.
The opening hours of the event will be 9.30 – 4pm Saturday and 11-3pm on Sunday.
The following groups are also planning to attend;
Wroughton History Group, Highworth Historical Society, Rodbourne Community History, Swindon Society, Mark Sutton & Help for Heroes, Western Front Association, WFHS, Alfred Williams.
I will need help to make this happen. The Library say they have interest already in Coleshill and our presence at the event will be greatly appreciated.
If you can give up 4 hours or more over the weekend please let me know ASAP.
Without your help we will not be able to make this happen…..

There are currently a few problems when some viewers click through to the OB’s listed on our OB page.
This is because the supplier of the website we link to is having problems with their site.
We are aware of this and have made them aware.
Sorry for any problem it has caused.

I have just added a function to the home page that will now search the whole website for any keyword you enter. A handy and fast way to search the site. It doesn’t include words or content from any of our forums as these are hosted on another website.
You can try it on our homepage
