商品簡介
Frank Broome was a 15 year old schoolboy when he experienced the three major blitzes in his home city of Coventry. During 1942, at the age of 17, he volunteered for the Royal Air Force Volunteer Reserve for pilot training. This autobiography, based on his copious diary entries and log books traces his pilot training in the UK, Canada and the USA, where he flew single and twin-engined aircraft.
He gives first-hand detailed accounts of the many missions during his tour with No. 626 Squadron during the height of Bomber Command's massed raids over Germany and occupied Europe. His book is written with a skill that portrays the dangers inherent in his task, the humour of service life and the sound reasons why his generation were proud to fly with Bomber Command.
