Description
Rejected by the Royal Canadian Air Force in the summer of 1939, Keith "Skeets" Ogilvie joined the British Royal Air Force instead. A week later he was on a boat to England and a future he could not have imagined. This is the story of an ordinary man who beat incredible odds on the frontlines, and the remarkable woman with whom he was reunited at the end of the War. Residence: Sidney, B.C.
