It is more than sixty years since the Battle of Britain raged in the skies over southern England during the summer and autumn of 1940. But for those who fought the battle and eventually thwarted the Luftwaffe's attempt to gain air supremacy over Britain, the memories remain. The Imperial War Museum Sound Archive has been interviewing veterans of the Battle of Britain for the past twenty-five years. The collection contains more than 120 interviews with, not only pilots, but also men and women involved in vital work on the ground. This page, however, will concentrate on the reminiscences of the pilots themselves.

In 1997 the Society of Archivists celebrates its fiftieth anniversary. As its main contribution to the celebrations, the Film and Sound Archives Group has initiated an oral history programme called "Celebrating Memory: An oral history of the Society of Archivists and its members", which it hopes will become an ongoing project built into the annual work of the Group and perhaps of the Society. "Celebrating Memory" will culminate at the end of the celebration year in a series of publications including a book. During the course of this project we aim to record as many interviews as possible with as wide a representation of the Society as we can, with a bias towards senior members of the profession who can tell us about the Society's growth and the growth of archives, conservation, and records management as such.
