Goldfish Caterpillars And Guinea Pigs
The RAF and Commonwealth air crews were bound by regulations and discipline during WWII. Survival was by no means a certainty with casualties becoming a part of everyday life. The evolution of non-established clubs was recognised and regarded as an important area within RAF history that boosted moral. The regulations flexed to allow membership pins and badges to be worn on RAF and Commonwealth flying uniforms. This book allows the reader to experience a number of individual stories and understand the relevance of being a: - Goldfish (Lives saved by the use of personal life preservers and dinghies) Caterpillar (Lives saved by parachutes) or: - Guinea Pig (Lives saved by pioneering surgery conducted by Archibald McIndoe at the Queen Victoria Hospital Sussex) In many instances the accounts
are recalled in great detail from the official records of medals and awards. True heroism and gallant deeds supported by original photographs create an easy to read book revealing areas of interest not previously visited in this format.
