When I Was A Lad

A Memory of Enfield.

I was at Suffolks School during the Second World War and after, from about 1939 until 1947, when we endured the worst that Hitler could throw at us. We had many, many air raids that interrupted our schooling and much of our time was spent in the air raid shelter. I recall the rocket that fell on the infant school and destroyed most of the school, the Head Mistress asked some of us to help salvage the merchandise, I was one of them. Oh, so many happy times.
