Description
The 409 Squadron story is one of the most infamous in RAF history. In this wickedly humorous portrait of men doing their duty in flying death traps, Derek Robinson brings to life the dogged heroes of the early bombing campaign. When war pitches these young pilots into battle over Germany, their training, tactics and equipment are soon found wanting. The chances of completing a 30-operation tour? One in three at best. This is a story of men who knew there was nothing else to do but dig in and hang on. Robinson's account is a testament to the bravery and resilience of those who served during this dark period, and offers a unique insight into one of the most pivotal moments in RAF history.
