摘要

Examples include a daily breakout of the number of sorties flown; aircraft and pilot losses, awards received, individual listing of all air-to-air kill claims, and a mini -biography of every pilot who flew as part of the squadron. The second book finds the United Kingdom, seeing the storm clouds of World War II approaching, asking Commonwealth countries to provide assistance in the form of troops and aircraft squadrons to defend the UK. [...] flying Spitfires sporting sharks teeth, the unit racked up a total of 46.5 kills.
