ENEMY COAST AHEAD by Guy Gibson is well worth reading.



Agree - ECA is a classic of wartime writing; unlike 99% of books on the market
that were written after the killing paused, ECA was written between Gibson's
years on bombing operations, the same years that were a literal bloodbath for
Bomber Command. Hair-raising stories of those bitter, dark years that set the
stage for the razing of Germany.

Donate your memories - write a note on the back and send your old photos to a
reputable museum, don't take them with you when you're gone.

Yep i have that one and i have one by Leonard Cheshire, i have a book by
Martin Caidin about the holocaust of Hamburg, and a real favourite by Maj.
James (King of Strafers) Goodson; Tumult in the Clouds, i've read it a
dozen times but still love reading it!
I have quite a few good aviation/war books but was looking for others by
E.K.Gann. Thanx for all the replies guys, tally ho!!!
