The RAF Museum has launched RAF Stories, a free digital resource accessible to everyone to submit, share and explore their family history and personal connections to the Royal Air Force.
The project has been launched online at www.rafstories.org as part of the RAF’s centenary celebrations and commemorations for 2018 and includes video interviews and transcripts, photographs and stories. It highlights the rich and personal links the public has with the RAF and showcases how throughout history the RAF family has reached far beyond its service men and women.

Users can watch the Hollywood star’s interviews with historian Joshua Levine about her father’s role with Bomber Command during the Second World War, which she learned more about through BBC TV genealogy show Who Do You Think You Are? in 2013.
