Rattlesden Airfield

Rattlesden Airfield
Control Tower at Rattlesden Airfield, Suffolk with T2 hangar in background. This airfield opened in 1942 and from 1943 to 1945 was home to the B-17 Flying Fortresses of the US 708th, 709th, 710th and 711th Bombardment Squadrons of the 447th Bomb Group (Heavy). It was a Bloodhound Missile station for the RAF in the 1960s. Today the tower forms the clubhouse for the local gliding club.
