A departure from the Cold War for the Boys series! The author conducted extensive research on this subject many years ago, originally intended for a project that never materialized. The Beaufighter air and ground crew generously shared their stories, ranging from comprehensive memoirs to brief anecdotes. Additionally, there was a vast collection of original photographs at his disposal. Graham Pitchfork has built upon these recollections to explore the roles of Beaufighter squadrons across all theaters of World War Two operations. From home bases in northwest Europe, North Africa, Malta, and the Mediterranean to the far Far East and southwest Pacific, the Beaufighter served extensively, as did the crews of the RAF, RAAF, SAAF, and New Zealand and Canadian squadrons. This remarkable book is a treasure for anyone with a deep interest in the air war from 1939 to 1945.
