I remember him working later at Coventry Victor, Hadden and Abbotts and Standard Motors until his death at 49 but cannot find anything about Anti-Aircraft gun manufacture in 1939.rnHe was 19 at the time of the register, an engineering inspector all his working life I have his certificate from the Institution of Engineering showing that he was enrolled as an Associate Member of the Institution of Engineering Inspectors July 1952.

Whenever I watched 'Dad's Army' I had to chuckle as I wondered if that was what it was really like! I don't think I ever wanted for anything. There was an ice-cream man used to come around the streets on his bike with a large metal box on the front, obviously a cooler of some kind. Dad kept chickens, ducks, and grew veg whenever he had the time. Lived on Lime Tree Avenue, Tile Hill, to 1947 and moved to Welland Road, Stoke

Turner, Norman
I WORKED for Triumph for more than 20 years, starting in 1968 at Tile Hill where I was working on the Herald and Vitesse. I moved from there to Canley where I worked on the track building the Triumph 2000. That was my favourite Triumph - it was a big car with leather upholstery and it was great when I got to drive them around. I always wanted a 2000 of my own but I never got round to buying one. I remember there were a lot of strikes in those days - I did not do a full week's work for years. I later moved into working on experimental prototypes and I retired aged 62 after Rover had taken over. It was a great place to work and there were some great lads.
