Hi
I'm sending a brief note because I was interested in Where Thrope Abbott is located in The U K by fater was a Flyer in B-17's in W W 2 based out of Thrope Abott all I know is it's enear the coast and Dad used to go to the bay or cove and gather perwinkles for the Townfolk as that area was off-limits to them because of the gunney area
I was Hoping someone could tellme more of the town and suroundind area
Very Truly Your
