New addition to Sudbury Heritage centre

Remembrance Sunday saw the official opening of a new exhibit in town with the memorial to the 486th American Bomber Group that was based at Sudbury at the Chilton Airfield. 204 names are on the memorial with photos and an account of the part the American airforce played in the life of Sudbury for the 1 year between 1944 - 45, they were based here.
Congratulations to Shirley, Val and Robin for their superb work and to the Museum Trust.
The Heritage Centre in the Town Hall is well worth a visit and is also a moving experience.
