Flt.Sgt. Norman Hubert Aldridge
Royal Air Force 100 Squadron
from:Coventry
Norman Aldridge served with 100 Squadron. I think his days of playing football in the Prisoner of War camp must have been instrumental in his signing up for West Bromwich Albion. I have a copy of the Soccer matches played 1943-1945 compiled by the Scotsman. Also photos signed on the back by the England players. They are all wearing England shirts. Where did they come from? He never smoked so exchanged his cigarettes for chocolate etc. I understand that they got extra rations for playing in the team.
