Eileen Alice Bartlett
Women's Royal Naval Service
from:Bridport, Dorset, England
My mother, Eileen Bartlett, was a Morse Code operator and talked about being stationed in Wales for a time. She also talked about being in London. I know that she and my father met at a dance, fell in love and married.
After moving to Oklahoma, she didn't talk much about the war because what she had seen bothered her very much. We didn't ever watch war movies or any programmes about wars and she became nervous at the sound of fireworks, so I assume she was near bombing.
One of her brothers was killed in the Middle East and another was taken prisoner by the Japanese for several years.
I'm very interested in knowing her military history but don't know how to find records.
