A 99-year-old veteran has had her Second World War debt repaid by the RAF after she was presented with five shilling coins.

Peggy Terry served with the Women's Auxiliary Air Force and when she was discharged in 1945 was still owed the money.

The debt, discovered by chance during the COVID pandemic, was repaid 77 years later by the Air Force during a special ceremony in Mrs Terry’s home in Gorslas, Carmarthenshire.
