Soundtrack: Warthogs over Woodbridge

BBC Radio 4
on BBC Radio 4 FM

The last in a series of graphic features reflecting contemporary life in Britain.

Ninety miles north-east of London, in rural east Suffolk, a community of 4,500 Americans live near the inhabitants of Woodbridge. RAF Bentwaters is home to the USAF 81st Tactical Fighter Wing and, during the Gulf War, reporter Pat Rowe spent a week there, with the men and women whose lives centre on one thing - keeping the 'Warthogs' flying.
