Aspirin, Bromide & Benjamin: Charnwood's WWII Secret RAF Unit
Heritage Open Day: A recreated layout of the Coalville Outstation of the RAF's top secret unit 80 Wing (Signals), based around a conserved WWII blast wall structure that housed a trailer with coded radio transmitters. 80 Wing's task was to sow Confusion to Our Enemies, achieved by transmissions that interfered with the Luftwaffe bomber navigation beams. A full interpretive display will be featured, and a special commemorative plaque will be unveiled.
