Description: Condition: Used - Good; Title: The Great Adventure: RAF Fighter Command's role from the Normandy Invasion to the end of the Second World War in Europe Johnson, Air Vice Marshal James Edgar 'Johnnie' and Johnson, Christopher; Description: The greatest Allied fighter pilot and Wing Leader during the Second World War, James Edgar "Johnnie" Johnson, wrote "The Great Adventure" during the last few years of his life. His son, Christopher, was left the manuscript by his Father which he feels duty bound to publish in order to keep the memory of the gallant Allied Air Crews alive in the public's mind. "The Great Adventure" takes a last critical look back at the RAF Commanders, pilots, planes and their air fighting tactics from the preparation for D Day to the fall of Berlin. "Johnnie's" story is of war and hard work; of lowly men from many nations fighting evil and their ambition Commanders; of strategic disasters such as Caen and Arnhem and the tactical victories by fighter bombers at Mortain & Falaise but above all the Allied's high spirits and comradeship forged in battle. He observes first hand the terrible costs to French civilians at Caen caused by the ill-conceived Allied bombing and the horrors of a German Concentration camp as the War ends.; Category: Books > Subjects > History > Military > Aviation; Publisher: Independently published; Author: Johnson, Christopher;
