Description
Written in his own hand from the day he signed up in October 1939 as a trainee pilot to the day he was 'demobbed' in October 1945, this poignant and often riveting diary by Squadron Leader Douglas Greaves D.F.C, records, in typical understated RAF style, the minutiae of everyday life in the services, as well as the horror he and his comrades endured and the heroism they all displayed.
