Notes
The Author's grandfather worked at the RNAS Airship Station at Kingsnorth in Kent during the war (he was a "hydrogen worker"). This is the background for her rather interesting book on the setting up of the Station, which describes the site chosen, the operations carried out from the Station and the procedures associated with them, the airships themselves, and (forming a substantial part of the book) the personnel serving there.
