Uses of RAF Welford
editIn the 1940s, the station held German prisoners of war. In recent years, the heavy munitions have (I believe) been extremely heavy, nuclear in fact.86.150.54.159 (talk) 20:03, 30 December 2008 (UTC)
- This isn't a new development. Welford has probably stored US nuclear weapons since 1955, and it was heavily involved in the RAF Greenham Common and RAF Molesworth cruise missile deployments of the 1980s. --Ef80 (talk) 13:33, 29 September 2011 (UTC)
Location
editRegarding the comment about the “Works Unit Only” red signage being changed/removed, there is definitely still a red bordered and red text sign on the M4 travelling Eastbound as I remarked about it today (3rd July 2021) as we passed it. However I don’t know how far back from the junction it is sited. Jmbatchelor (talk) 17:43, 3 July 2021 (UTC)
