Frank Cresser,my Dad,came here in 1944 after joining the RAF.He lied about his age as he was 17 and not 18 as you had to be to sign up.He said the first thing that shocked him was that children ran around with no shoes and of course they had been told that 'The Mother Country' (Britain) had streets paved with gold.
He was posted in Newcastle which he described as so cold that he had to wear two overcoats.
Want to know anything more.
