Hello everyone.
Ian N, I read with interest about your late father and Rootes. My mother in law was one of the first women to be employed as a welder during the war. She is now 89 years old and maintains the the factory was attacked by a lone German plane sweeping low over the factory and firing. She remembers every one taking cover and recalls there may have been casualties. She would love to know if anyone else can remember this incident.
Regards,
Mathilda.
