Canadian and British airmen engaged in fierce and deadly battles in
the skies over Europe during the Second World War. Those who
survived often had to overcome incredible obstacles to do so -
dodging bullets and German troops, escaping from burning planes and
enduring forced marches if they became prisoners. "The Survivors"
tells some of these stories - tales that are so amazing they sound
like fiction. In one story, a tail gunner from Montreal survived
despite being unconscious when blown out of his bomber. Another
story describes how the crew of a navigator from Ottawa used
chewing gum to fill holes in their aircraft. And another tells how
a pilot from Northern Ontario parachuted out of his plane and
became the target of a German machine-gunner, but within hours 120
Germans surrendered to him. These painstakingly researched stories
will enable you to feel what now-aging veterans endured when they
were young men in the air war against Nazi Germany.
