Produktbeschreibung
A factual account of the timeless story of a young man preparing for and engaging in the drama of mortal combat against a hostile force. It gives a penetrating look into 41 Squadron, a highly decorated fighting unit of the Royal Air Force. It captures the reality of air-to-air combat, the scars it leaves, the dangers these young men faced and the price they paid to serve their country. The story moves from the routine of rigorous training to the drama of aerial combat offering compelling insights as to the role of the Almighty in survival. Finely honed piloting skills and dedicated sense of purpose enabled 22 year-old John Francis Wilkinson to shoot down or destroy a V-1 Buzz bomb and five Focke-Wulf Fw190 fighters in the latter days of WWII. You will find the story deeply inspiring in the accounts of how "The Hand of the Lord" provided for the author's survival as well as endless opportunities to observe the beauty of creation. John truly flew above the clouds and "touched the face of God."
