633 Squadron - Softcover
An outstanding wartime story. This is a dramatic, poignant and tragic story of a squadron of men chosen to carry out an almost impossible task, but one on which success of the D-Day operations depends. Re-created are the pressures and tensions which afflict the men operating under great stress preparing for and carrying out a mission which must not fail. From the beginning of the squadron's special training to the climactic attack on the Black Fjord, it is a story of authenticity and excitement.
