WW2 Photo of 442 Squadron ATC Upper Heyford Would Love Some TLC Please
« on: Monday 15 August 16 21:50 BST (UK) »
Hi, would any of you lovely and skilled people care to fix my Dad's old photo please?
We were just handed a boxful from the relatives of our late uncle and we'd never seen this one before.
It's a treasure even in its delapidated state!

That is very good considering the little you had to go on!   ;)

To manage that with such a poor scan is amazing.

Thanks Wiggy.... Always prepared to work a bit harder for those who served. They earned it. :)

Brilliant - thanks! It wouldn't upload in its original size so I reduced it. Not done that before, so a 'Newbie'
