Maurice Sanderson and Betty Bodaly

Maurice Sanderson and Betty Bodaly, May 2008 at Skipton-On-Swale base. Mr. Sanderson is the owner of the farm on which the base was built. He continues to farm the land now that the war is over. He has conserved many of the buildings, recognizing their historical significance to all involved in the war effort.

Mr Sanderson was a 16 year old boy at the time of the plane crash at Skipton-on-Swale base. Click here to read about the crash, and here to see a piece of the plane, conserved by Mr . Sanderson.
