A vivid, first-hand account of the tension and excitement of flying
missions over Nazi Germany The British and American bomber crews of
the Second World War often had to endure the most terrifying
conditions. Not for them the glorious, all-or-nothing exhilaration
of the Battle of Britain pilots - rather, the slow dwindling of
courage as mission followed mission, the long, freezing,
ear-shattering journey to the target, the bursting flak, the
prowling night fighters. Then, if they were lucky, the long haul
home, sometimes nursing a battered, barely flyable machine, often
perilously short of fuel. Bruce Lewis flew in thirty-six such
raids. In this book he records, in his own words and those of his
fellow survivors, the events that made operational flying such a
fearful experience. This is a blisteringly honest account of life
for the Second World War bombers.
