Description
US Air Force Bases in the UK by Paul Bingley explores the history and ongoing use of modern-day British airfields by the US Air Force. The book delves into the many airfields that survived World War II, but have since been reclaimed for agricultural purposes. The 'special relationship' between the UK and the US remains strong, with these airfields continuing to serve as a testament to this enduring bond. Bingley's examination of the concrete paths that bind these two nations together offers a unique insight into the complex history of Anglo-American relations. This book provides a detailed look at the history and significance of these airfields, shedding light on their role in modern-day military operations and their continued use by the US Air Force.
