Dilip Sarkar 
Spitfire! [PDF ebook] 
The Full Story of a Unique Battle of Britain Fighter Squadron

समर्थन

‘;A really excellent, detailed, comprehensive and moving history of 19 Squadron, RAF during the Second World War’ from the author of Arnhem 1944 (Clash of Steel). As a child, Dilip Sarkar was fascinated by the haunting image of an anonymous RAF Spitfire pilot. Taken minutes after landing from a Battle of Britain combat, this was Squadron Leader Brian Lane DFC, the commander of 19 Squadron, based at Fowlmere. Deeply moving was the discovery that, in 1942, Brian was reported missing after a futile nuisance raid over the Dutch coast. During the mid-1980s, Dilip began researching the life and times of both Brian Lane and 19 Squadron, forging close friendships with many of the unit’s surviving Battle of Britain pilots and support staff. Nearly thirty years later, sadly all of the survivors are now deceased, but Dilip’s close relationship has provided a huge archive of correspondence and interviews in addition to a unique photographic collection. Furthermore, the author, a retired police detective, has thoroughly investigated the lifeand deathof Squadron Leader Lane. This completely new Spitfire! covers everything we would ever need to know about such a unit during the critical pre and early war period: the social, political, aviation and military history all in one volumeemphasizing the human experience involved and the stories of casualties. With an immense photographic collectionmany published here for the first timethis book is destined to become a classic. ‘;The most thorough book about any squadron in RAF service during the Battle of Britain … an impeccable source of information and a gripping story Most Highly Recommended.’ Firetrench
