Sample Book Insights:
#1 The first dogfight was a introduction to the use of guns in earnest and the terrifying quality of air fighting. I was close to panic in the bewilderment and hot fear of that first dogfight.
#2 I was transformed, Walter Mitty-like, when I shot down my first enemy aircraft. I was so excited that I did not realize that I was flying the wrong direction toward the land. I turned back the way I came, thinking I could crash-land somewhere off Dunkirk and get home in a boat.
#3 I had been fascinated by the idea of war from an early age. I knew every picture in The Times History of the Great War and its sister volume about the Boer War. I gazed fascinated at the drawings and photographs of gallant Britons engaging the enemy in every kind of situation.
#4 The pilots of the Auxiliary Air Force were lawyers and farmers, stockbrokers and journalists. They had a passion for flying and a fierce determination that anything the regulars could do, the auxiliaries could do better.
