Bettina (Betty) Astle was conscripted into the armed services in 1942 and was given the choice of dairy farming or the Timber Corps. She joined the Women’s Timber Corps and went to Bury St Edmunds for training in the middle of winter in a forest with a 4lb axe. She talks about poor living conditions, little food, receiving only 7 shillings a week, and that you had to have had a rough life to cope with it. Her first job was in the Yorkshire Dales, cutting trees for pit props in Driffield. She was working at Church Broughton when the Fauld munitions dump exploded, and she recalls worked alongside POWs. The Archive also holds Betty’s photographs, news cuttings on the Fauld Explosion, and an audio interview. #history #militaryhistory #war #ww2 #veteran #interview #archive #homefront #womeninwar #timbercorps
