Not an awful lot to go on at the moment I'm afraid.

Opened as Quartermaster Depot Q-102 in August/September 1942, VIII AFSC, att. 1 Bomb Div. 8AF.
1934th QM Truck Company (Aviation) activated on site 13/9/42.
Army Post Office No.634 (APO 634) established at Wellingborough 15/9/42.
13th (Photo Recce) Squadron arrived 1/12/42, departed for Station 234 (RAF Mount Farm) 16/2/43.
985th MP Company (Aviation), Detachment H on site 31/5/44.
Closed 1945.

No location or other info held by AFHRS or NARA.

TTFN,
PB
