TNA podcast on RAF Service records

27 January 2009 saw the presentation of a talk on RAF Service records, now available as a podcast, by TNA military specialist William Spencer.

The talk covers the records of the Royal Air Force and predecessor organizations the Royal Engineers Balloon Section, the Royal Flying Corps and Royal Naval Air Service. There are peculiarities to the records for people whose service bridged the transition in 1918. For WW2 records are still with the Ministry of Defence and available only to the ex-serviceman or next-of-kin.

As with Spencer`s previous presentations, this is another example of a topic that would benefit from the visuals being available.
