About the book

"We were soon to be posted, the Air Commodore told us, to the USA and in this we were fortunate young men: the training there would be of the highest order, in unparalleled conditions of environment and climate, far away from blackouts, bombs and rationing; this good fortune, however, carried its responsibilities."Squadron leader Jack Currie tells the story of his entry into the Royal Air Force, his early training in the UK and his initial flying training with the US Army Air Corps under the Arnold Scheme. This lead to his first solo flight and he was rewarded with that coveted pair of silver wings. Thence back to England and Bomber Command to meet the men who were to be his Lancaster crew.
