Corporal Leonard Guttridge was among the many unsung heroes of the
Battle of Britain--the Royal Air Force mechanics and armorers who
patched bullet holes, repaired engines, refueled empty tanks and
replenished ammunition, enabling outnumbered pilots to return to
the skies. His journal, written in tiny notebooks, at moments under
enemy fire, chronicles the battle and its human toll, and portrays
the tenacity of the RAF ground crews without whom the British could
not have defeated the German Luftwaffe.
