Nantwich gathered yesterday (January 12) to honour the 81st anniversary of Lieutenant Arthur L. Brown’s heroic sacrifice during World War II.
The memorial service, held at the Airman’s Grave near Shrewbridge Road, paid tribute to the 23-year-old United States Army Air Force pilot who gave his life to prevent a crash in the town.
An exhibition telling the story of prisoners of war in World War II with reference to those held in local camps and hostels has opened at Nantwich Museum.
There were 12 base camps in Cheshire during the war with numerous hostels housing low security “non-officer rank” men obliged to fight but who found themselves working in agriculture, forestry and War Department work.
