Last week, I visited the National Archives in Kew to gather information on the West Indian recruits who trained at Filey and the small contingent of Black American G.I’s based at Cottingham during World War Two. While records relating to the conflict are in abundance and the majority are very well preserved, after trawling through a large number of files kept by the Air Ministry, Colonial and War Offices it became increasing apparent that finding any specific information was going to be very difficult.
