I am trying to trace my father, Zygmunt Rosiak. I have received some information from the Polish Air Force Association. On a form they sent me there is the name of the RAF Station, Faldingworth, where he was based in the 1940s and also an address as follows: c/o Mr A Beniston 128 Morrell Street Maltby Yorks. Can anyone provide any further infromation?
