RAF Talbenny
About
RAF Talbenny opened in Pembrokeshire in 1942 as a Coastal Command station. The Wellingtons of the Czech No. 311 and Polish No. 304 Squadrons flew anti-submarine and anti-shipping patrols from it over the Bay of Biscay and the western approaches before it became a ferry-training base. Flying ended in 1946, and most of the airfield has gone, the land returning to farming.
