My War: I The Pilot

From 1939 to 1945, Squadron Leader Peter Freygood overcomes anti-Semitism, anti-colonialism, innumerable encounters with the enemy, and the normal problems associated with coming of age.

The Pilot describes his training, his first encounters with the opposite sex, the initial raids on Germany, and the week his squadron provided 24-hour-a-day air cover during the escape from Dunkirk.
