THE grandson of an RAF airman will be recounting the epic wartime escape from occupied Europe of his grandfather at the July meeting of the Pembrokeshire Aviation Group.

Author Adam Hart has retraced the journey of his grandfather, Frank Griffiths, after his Halifax bomber was shot down in 1943. This inspired him to write the story, entitled ‘Operation Pimento: My Great Grandfather’s Great Escape’, which was published in 2025.

Adam’s talk will take place at Pembroke Dock Heritage Centre, Meyrick Owen Way, SA72 6WS, at 7.30pm on Wednesday July 8.

Non-members are most welcome to attend, with a modest contribution of £3 to help defray costs.

Further details available from Chairman Graham Clarkson on 01646 689979.
