Brenda Joan Trivett . Womens Land Army from Bristol
My mum, Brenda Trivett, was a member of the Women's Land Army during WW2 and was based at Fieldgrove Farm, Bitton, near Bristol. Her family lived in Bristol and although she was in a protected job working for a food company she decided that she wanted to do her bit for the war and joined the Land Army.
Mum trained, and later became a trainer herself, at Field Grove Farm and had many happy memories of her time there which she shared with me before she died in 1996. We also visited the farm on a couple of occasions so I really do remember her memories well.
Mum made a very close friend of one of the land girls and she later became my godmother. Auntie Nora, as I knew her, is also on several of the photographs but has sadly now also passed away. I have a number of large photographs, that were taken, of the land girls, in and around the farm and later displayed in the bus depot in the centre of Bristol to encourage young women to join up. One particular photograph, shows the land girls leading live bulls around the City Centre, apparently they walked from Durham Down to the Centre, with a police presence and crowds of onlookers. Unfortunately I do not have any documents confirming my Mum's service but I do have my godmother's official note from Elizabeth R confirming her service from April 1940 to November 1950. Also another document in appreciation of ten years good service from the Chief Administrative Officer.

Flt.Sgt. Kenneth Sydney Trollope DFM AFC.. Royal Australian Air Force 104 Squadron from Australia
Ken Trollope was a great friend of mine now sadly deceased. Ken was a Flight Sergeant with 104 Sqdn in WW2 and received a Distinguished Flying Medal and Air Force Cross (which he never told me about - I found this out after he had died).
His story went like this: He was flying back to England following a mission somewhere over occupied Europe. It was terrible weather, extreme storms, rain, lightning, severe winds, black as black. A lightning flash occurred, and looking out to starboard, Ken saw a German night fighter flying a parallel course. The sky went black again and after some tense moments, another flash showed the fighter still there. Then, the amazing part, he said, the pilot waved to him and began to bank away. When the next flash ocurred, he was gone. It was, he said, as if the german pilot was saying "This is not a night for anyone to be up here".
I have no dates for this event and it was the only time Ken mentioned the war to me. I have since found out about his medals from research.
The London Gazette of 29h August 1944 reported his DFM: "This officer has displayed notable skill courage and keenness in air operations. He has completed a large number of sorties, involving attacks on a variety of targets. One night in July 1944, he piloted an aircraft detailed for a mine-laying mission. In spite of intense light anti-aircraft fire, Flight Sergeant Trollope maintained a steady run in and laid his mines in the prescribed area. A few days later, this airman took part in an attack of an enemy airfield and his skillful and resolute efforts contributed materially to the success obtained."

My father Charles Trott served with 115 squadron as a flight engineer under pilot officer Plum. He was shot down by a JU 88 on a mine-laying mission to La Rochelle in 1942. He had volunteered for this mission because the regular flight engineer had been classified lmf (lack of moral fibre). He evaded capture and returned to the UK six months later with the assistance of the French resistance. The pilot of the aircraft on the night my father was shot down is buried in the churchyard at Ingrandes sur mer, France. Full details can be obtained in the records of the RAF escaping society. I have a photograph of him in uniform and also details of the German ace who shot him down.
