5.0 out of 5 stars Gunners at play, 17 July 2009

C. Powell (Wirral U K) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)

This review is from: Boys at War (Paperback)

I bought this book mainly for my father who was a tail gunner, rather than mid gunner, in 115 squadron but he assures me the training described is exactly as he remembers.
As I read the book to him, his sight not being good these days,each chapter sparks more memories and he can't wait for the next visit and chapters.
I would recommend this book to anyone who wants to experience what it was like in bomber command during WW2

This review is from: Boys at War (Paperback)

Gripping read, couldn't put the book down. Gave to many friends to read. Very insteresting story, nice touch at the end - revisiting the people the writer met during his ordeal. Highly recommend.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent true story, 20 Jan 2010

Nicmx51AE (uk) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Boys at War (Paperback)

The story of how this young airman was trained in WW2, flew bomber missions and was eventually shot down and captured is fascinating. The story of the prison camp and his eventful return home gives you a real idea of life in Occupied Europe and the chaotic conditions as the war there drew to a close.

Have bought this copy because so many people borrowed my first one that I needed a replacement!
