Our show is dedicated to the people who served on and around Westonzoyland Airfield during its operational era. But why Warag exactly, I hear you say? The land that the Airfield sits upon has had two significant historical uses, military and over a greater period of time, agricultural. Those two uses came together quite dramatically between 1939 and 1945 when the War Agricultural Executive Committee was set up and known colloquially as the "WARAG" ! The purpose of this committee was to oversee food production in Great Britain against the spectre of U boats cutting us off from our vast empire. The committee had the power to impose new cropping regimes and even to confiscate inefficient farms.
