"My Grandad Derek Fincher 93 worked here"

A review of Smethwick Drop Forge Ltd by Mel Fincher written on Friday 24th of November 2017

My Grandad who is now 93 was a manager here during the war. He started in Smethwick then moved to Kidderminster. His name was Derek Fincher I don’t know exactly what he did but he said he designed jet propellers during the ww2. I think he was a manager as he had a secretary Mrs Broom I think he called her and he had a University engineering batchelor degree. I will ask him if he remembers anyone on her :).
