AC2. Henry Cartwright
Royal Air Force
My Dad, Henry Cartwright stationed at RAF Pembroke Dock before the
2nd World War.
My father was a medic who used to take the crew of the Sunderlands out before their sorties, and bring them back to land when they returned. I used to watch the take off and landing of the Sunderlands from our back bedroom window on King St. I used to look forward to watching them.
I used to help my mum's uncle work at a timber yard at the end of King St, not too far from the old cinema. I left Pembroke dock just after the war as Dad was posted to RAF Sealand.
I am now 80 years old and visited the town a few months ago and stayed at the Dolphin Hotel, which is not too far from Market St. Nobody can tell me much about the changes and King St isn't there anymore, can you give me some info on this subject?
I am writing my life history for my grand children, hope you can help.
