RAF Brawdy, Pembrokeshire, Wales, 14th July 1961. Central Tower, Control Tower - A Glimpse into the Royal Air Force's Past
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print from Memory Lane Prints takes us back to a significant moment in British military history. The image captures the bustling atmosphere of RAF Brawdy on a summer day in 1961. In the foreground stands the imposing Central Tower, home to the vital nerve center of this naval air station. Inside the Control Tower, we see an air traffic controller diligently working amidst an array of equipment that defined their era. With focused determination and precision, they manage incoming and outgoing aircraft using radar screens and radio communication systems. The scene is filled with nostalgia as we observe this dedicated serviceman seated at his post. The telephone by his side serves as a lifeline connecting him to pilots soaring through Welsh skies above. This photograph offers a unique glimpse into the daily operations at RAF Brawdy during its heyday in the 1960s. It reminds us of the crucial role played by these unsung heroes who ensured safety and efficiency within our armed forces. Preserved by Western Mail Archive's collection of historical prints, this snapshot encapsulates not only a specific time but also evokes feelings of admiration for those who served their country with honor and dedication.
