    i would be most greatful to receive any photographs of the air base, and of those stationed during the WWII in Vieux Fort, St Lucia my grandfather served there and i believe he was a pilot from America and did live in St Lucia for a while – any photographs, news or names of those stationed there would be greatly appreciated.
