RAF Bawdsey was in my back yard when I lived there from 1984 to 1987 serving in the U.S. Air Force. My neighbors were in the RAF stationed at Bawdsey. Good times for sure!!

I served at Bawdsey 1967/8 at that time it was the only operational RAF Station where the WRAF outnumbered the men. It was also the training station for WRAF Air Traffic Control assistants. Happy days.
