Description:
Join us at Thurleigh Airfield museum, where we will be made very welcome with our own dedicated Figgy parking area.
Visit the Bomber Museum, free entry, and have a snack at the on site cafe.
The 306th Bombardment Group Museum is a memorial dedicated to the personnel of the 306th Bomb Group who operated from Thurleigh during WW2, as part of the Eighth Air Force 40th Combat Wing, 1st Air Division. The Museum is an original building formally used by the 306th BG as a Small Arms Ammunition store. It is used today to display artefacts to re-create the activities and atmosphere of the airfield and surrounding areas during the war years, as well as honour all those that lost their lives.
There is also a car meet taking place as it is the last Sunday of the month.
