This book certainly does not rate more than two stars. It is repetitive ------ with beers, toast, tea, clouds and dozens of names. The trouble is some sixty years after the experiences Wellum tries to write as a twenty year old rather than tell the whole story other than `Boys own' Except sometimes when he moralizes with hindsight which is dreadful. There is no mention in the book whatever of any German attacks on the airfields he flew from which were well bashed by Goring and his boys prior to the Battle of Britian.The feel of what went on does not come through with the passion it deserves.
