About this product
Product Information
These narrative diaries from World War II were written by Roland Beamont who served with fighter squadrons from 1939 at the age of 19. Three tours of fighter operations included: Hurricane daytime air defence in France in the Battle of Britain in 1940; night-fighting defence of Bristol, Cardiff and Plymouth in 1941; typhoon ground attack operations over the Channel and Low Countries in 1942-3; tempest operations throughout the D Day period in 1944 and subsequently defence against V1 flying bomb attacks. In September 1944, Beamont was moved to Volkel, the most advanced base of the RAF's 2nd Tactical Air Force in Holland and on 13th October 1944 became a prisoner of war. The last part of the diaries was written in Luckenwalde PoW camp near Potsdam in 1945 as the Allied forces made their final drive across Germany to victory.

- m***l (152)- Feedback left by buyer.Past 6 monthsVerified purchaseExceptional service from a very reliable seller. They were offering a long-out-of-print book at a very reasonable price. On checkout I was given a 10% discount code; the book was dispatched with free postage, followed by an email advising they were giving a refund because they considered the book was not in as good a condition as advertised. The book arrived two days later, well-packaged and in great condition too. Thank you WeBuyBooks, I’m happy to recommend such exemplary service.
