No - it was Morseman that had the brown uniform you noodle raftl

However, I'd gladly be a care taker of a man in uniform wink

RAF Sealand was RAF Shotwick, but kept getting confused with RAF Shopwick (I think that is the right one) in Lincolnshire. There are some CWWC graves in Shotwick Churchyard. The Rifle Ranges were moved out to their current location just beofre the war because the RAF wanted more space.

There is a nice little underground look out bunker at the back of Sealand (public accessible):

There was always RAF Little Sutton as well.

I have also heard (twice) of .303 guns being made in Heswall.

It would be interesting to have a thread for people to document what they made on the Wirral during WW2, and where.
