Throughout the war Kent remained at the centre of the conflict, and the courageous pilots of Fighter Command received countless decorations for their bravery. This book is a tribute to the pilots and crew who flew from airbases in Kent including Biggin Hill during the last war and whose actions displayed come of the finest examples of courage, as inexperienced but determined young pilots threw there Hurricans and Spitfires into the melee of tracer bullets above the county.
In this well researched and excellently written book, Rupert Mathews describes many of the operations in detail and tells the story of courageous individuals who despite the odds, flew mission after mission - heroes every one of them. This book also includes photographs.
