GREAT read again, 10 year break, have bi polar so was better this time, now it's under control, have a lot more respect for the bomber boy's now, going to war in the Hampton's, lanc's and Guy's spin on the dam raid's, what a pitty his luck rang out, never wanted a rest, with over half a million copie's sold in PAN alone

hi,
totally agree, great book giving a insider view of the bomber barons, how they released the pent up energy ie re-painting the road markings for a rival squadron's night out, and the comment that "it was safer going to the Rhur than the snake pit in Lincoln"

hi Phil,
I commented on a photo of him with his top button undone, it was a lapse of when he was on a fighter squadron...
