Found information for my research on Pembrey Airport on the first day. A detailed report of the action leading up to the capture of the FW190A-3 at Pembrey.

I am granddaughter of Anna Kubickova. My grandmother is related to rtm. Jan Kubicek – Fitter Flight Engineer. Jan after the war lived in Manchester. Very glad if I could greet his descendants, we do not have any contact. For any information I would be very grateful.

My father, Joseph Scott Peddie, USAF, operated a CIA operation out of Wiesbaden from 1951-1954. He recruited both pilots/crew and agents from Poles, Czechs, Albanians, etc. – anyone who hated the Russians. His low flying, unmarked planes dropped agents behind the Iron Curtain.
Intelligence work at that time was a small world and I wonder if Vit Angetter and my father ever crossed paths!
