In writing this history there have been a number of people and organisations who have been of great assistance.
I would like to record my gratitude to:
The present owner of the site for his selfless and generous assistance in providing access to the site and preserving it in such exceptional condition. He spends much of his time abroad these days and he has asked that his name not be published. I am, however, quite happy to pass on any genuine correspondence that readers of these pages may wish to send.
Mark Bennett for his information about RAF Bempton and his ‘on-site’ commentary during the investigation of the underground ROTOR bunker.
Ernie Knibbs maintenance electrician, for his insight into many aspects of the history, particularly the bunker, during his time there from 1946 to 1957.
Jack Edwards, Paul Walters, Bob Horton, for their reminiscences of the times they spent at Truleigh and similar sites.
Cyril Rhodey for the information about No 3701 (County of Sussex) Radar Reporting Unit.
Avis Parsons MM for her assistance with memories of Truleigh Hill and the story of how she won the Military Medal by staying at her post in throughout an air raid while acting as an operator at Poling on the Truleigh – Poling – Stanmore communications link.
The ‘Research Study Group’ (RSG) for the information published on their web site and for the assistance of their members in adding to my knowledge-base
Ian Brown for putting me right on some of the technical details.
