By Midwest Book Review (Oregon, WI USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Royal Air Force in Texas: Training British Pilots in Terrell during World War II (War and the Southwest) (Hardcover)
The Royal Air Force In Texas: Training British Pilots In Terrell During World War II by Tom Killebrew is the fascinating and little known story of the first of six British flight training schools which were deliberately located in America for the express purpose of instructing Royal Air Force pilots during the years of the Second World War. These schools were necessary, for they trained new recruits away from the enemy attacks and poor weather conditions back in England. Yet they were not entirely safe; anything from collisions to running out of fuel could quickly claim the lives of these trainees. The Royal Air Force In Texas is an informed and informative descriptive survey into the militarily difficult times British military aviation history and a unique addition to the growing library of World War II histories.
