Publishers Description: The story of Royal Australian Air Force service culminating in a tour of operations against the enemy, whilst an aircrew member on the Australian Lancaster 460 squadron immediately following the invasion of Europe by the allied forces. Dedicated to the aircrew of Bomber Command, and to all those who did not return. People who did not have the privilege of service in an active squadron overseas cannot appreciate the bond that existed between aircrew, who flew together "into the mouth of hell". The book tells of one Tasmanian boy who achieved much to become an aircrew bomb aimer and complete a full tour of operations among the heroic crews of Bomber Command. - Air Commodore K.R. Parsons, C.B.E., D.S.O., D.F.C., A.F.C.
