Robertson's Dad and his Car |
Thank you to James Morton-Robertson, Sevenoaks, Kent
for allowing me to reproduce this photograph of his dad who was to become,
RAF Sergeant James
Morton Robertson,
standing beside his car. This photo was taken around in 1933.
James tells me that this car, and later his
dad's AJS motorcycle, were garaged in a big
wooden shed in Forbes St between St Leonards St and St Leonards Hill."

"My father had volunteered for the RAF but was
killed on his first mission which was an operation using Hampden Torpedo
Bombers to sink the Tirpitz. They had to fly to Murmansk but his
plane was shot down. The plane is now being rebuilt by the RAF
Museum."
