Description
This is the true story of Ron James, a Royal Air Force air gunner who served during World War II. As part of the crew of Squadron Leader Bill Day, DFC, James completed two tours of operations, taking part in raids on key targets across Europe.
James's experiences, known as the "Brylcreem Boys", offer a unique perspective on life and death, courage and fear, and the camaraderie and ingenuity of the aircrew who served with Bomber Command. His account provides a personal and intimate look at daily life on the squadrons, reflecting the experiences of thousands of aircrew who served during this period.
With its focus on the daily lives of the aircrew, this book provides a valuable insight into a pivotal moment in history, and is a testament to the bravery and resilience of those who served during World War II.
