Frank Kemp: WWII London Lens

My grandad is still with us (Frank Kemp). He is 94 years old. He lives in Ferring. My grandma passed away a few months ago.

He was a young man in WWII who didn't serve. He was a photographer for an insurance company and was employed to take photographs of insurance documents in London for buildings that they were worried would be blown up. This was as an early backup.

He told me that, during the war, he would get the train to London to go the theatre after he had finished his photography shift.

He found this tail fin of an incendiary bomb in Colston in 1940 (photographed today).
