Will Sutcliffe from Hebden Bridge was am engineer in the RAF during World War Two.

Posted out to Iceland, Will celebrated VE Day with colleagues on the airbase.

He remembers a joyous atmosphere but most of all the hearty meal they were given. On the menu was soup, roast turkey, sausage, veal, potatoes, peas and a cold beer. It was more than they were used to.

Celebrations were short as the war with Japan was still ongoing. Many of Will's peers were re-patriated and then sent out back out to the Far East.
