Paperback. Condizione: New. J. R. D. 'Bob' Braham was Britain's most-decorated fighter pilot and one of the most successful fighter pilots of World War II. Joining the RAF in 1938 at the age of 18, he was posted to No. 29 Squadron at Debdon, where he learned to fly the Hawker Hurricane and Bristol Blenheim. By 1939, the squadron had become a specialised night fighting unit and Braham gained his first victory in August 1940.From that point on, he was constantly in action. Famed for his individual night-time intruder sorties, he also took part in the Peenemiinde raid, the Battle of Britain, and the fight against the V1s and V2s during the Blitz. In 1943, battle fatigued, he moved into an operational role but continued to fly operations until June 1944 when he was shot down and captured. Having completed 316 missions, he spent the next eleven months as a Prisoner of War, and was finally liberated in May 1945.With 29 confirmed combat victories, Braham achieved more success in night fighting than almost any other RAF pilot and was awarded the triple Distinguished Flying Cross (DFC), the triple Distinguished Service Order (DSO) and the Air Force Cross (AFC). Told in his own words, with all the spirit and dynamism for which he was known as a pilot, this is Braham's extraordinary story.

John Randall Daniel "Bob" Braham, DSO & Two Bars, DFC & Two Bars, AFC, CD (6 April 1920 - 7 February 1974) was a Royal Air Force (RAF) night fighter pilot and fighter ace during the Second World War. He gained his first victory on 24 August, which remained his only success in the battle. In September 1940, No. 29 Squadron was re-equipped with the Bristol Beaufighter. Braham continued operations during "The Blitz", claiming the destruction of two more enemy aircraft. By the end of 1940 he had been awarded the Distinguished Flying Cross (DFC). Braham continued to operate as an anti-intruder pilot after the Blitz ended in May 1941. He became an ace in September 1941, and was awarded a bar to his DFC in November 1941. Braham was the most highly decorated airman in RAF Fighter Command. Foreword by Air Chief Marshal Sir Basil Embry. Introduction by Robert Spreckels, Ace German Fighter-pilot of the Luftwaffe. He was the pilot who shot Braham down. Fast-paced, hard-hitting and personal, Wing Commander J.R.D. "Bob" Braham recounts his brilliant career as a Second World War fighter pilot in the Royal Air Force (RAF). Beginning with his pre-war training, he takes us battle-by-battle through that fateful afternoon in June 1944, when he was shot down over German-occupied Denmark and taken prisoner. From the desperate nighttime sorties against the Luftwaffe's air strikes during the Battle of Britain to the daring daylight intruder raids against Hitler's crumbling Reich, Braham's story reveals the skill, courage and teamwork between pilot an navigator that made him one of the RAF's most deadly fighter pilots.
