| Mr A.P. 'Jimmy' Rowe, the
Superintendent (or 'Director') used to have
an organisation chart on the wall in his
office which consisted of magnetic
nameplates on a steel panel. The staff
lists in this section are based on a
photograph taken of this chart in March
1942, shortly before the move to Malvern in
May. You can look at the photograph of
this March
1942 Director's Chart. This chart
recorded scientific, technical and
administrative people and did not include
skilled / non-skilled industrial grades (as
was the practice at the time). Photographs
of charts which were taken on other dates
and 'Nominal Rolls' are available on the Penley
Radar Archives CD-ROM.
The alphabetical
staff list was made by taking the names
from the March 1942 Director's Chart - and
then adding a few key people involved in
early radar who were not on the list.
There is also a version of this same list where staff
appear by the Group they worked
in. The functions of the various
groups are listed at the top of that page,
and were provided by Sidney
Jefferson.
There is also a separate biography
section for some of the staff with
mini-biographies which focus on their activities during the war. |
