Marjorie Inkster, 76 pages relating to her her wartime work in REME along with her sister Brenda and brother Frazer.
Book written by Marjorie, entitled Bow and Arrow War from FANY to Radar in World War II.
Brenda Inkster was born in 1917 and on leaving school spent some years in France and Germany. She studied at Heidelberg University and apparently eventually spoke German almost like a native.
Brenda joined the First Aid Nursing Yeomanry (F.A.N.Y.) in 1940, driving ambulances and staff cars, but was soon absorbed into Intelligence at Chester, because of her knowledge of German. From there she went to Bletchley Park (having collected a commission on the way) She stayed there until nearly the end of the ear, ending up as a Junior Commander in B.O.A.R., ferreting-out ex-Nazis.

After a five-year art training in the post-war period, she was invited to work in the Ministry of Defence. Having suffered from cancer since the age of thirty, she eventually had to retire and go to live with her sister Marjorie. The sisters came together to live in Bampton, at Grove Cottage in 1963 She died, after marvellous medical care, in 1993.
