  • Product Description

    Volume two of this fascinating study of an airfield and its pilots starts just after the Battle of Britain when Hornchurch was at the forefront in taking the fight to the enemy, heavily involved in the Sweeps and Circuses of 1941.

    Action was continuous and famous characters of the war, such as Harry Broadhurst and Paddy Finucane, passed through and the book expresses their views, experiences and recollections.

    Other events during the war in which the base was predominant include the German Channel Dash; Operation "Starkey" with the Americans, forming Mobile Radar Units for D-Day; and countering the V-1 menace.
