I am hoping to get in touch with any Wrens who trained at HMS Dauntless (Reading) in the UK between 1947-1981 (in the early years it was also known as Training Establishment Burghfield).
We have created a project called Dauntless Division Photos which, once complete, will provide an archive of easily accessible Division photos. But right now the project is also linking thousands of Wrens from this time period – rekindling old friendships, making new ones, reliving memories, sharing anecdotes and generally being a support and comfort during this unsettling time.
It’s a mammoth task being created by Wrens for Wrens.
If you know of anyone who was a post-World War II Wren, chances are they trained at HMS Dauntless. Please tell them about this project and ask them to contact us.
