A fun read. Bader was quite remarkable.

My library doesn’t have this. Brickhill also wrote “The Great Escape.”

Read Adolf Galland’s book: “The First and the Last.” He talks about meeting Douglas Bader as a POW. Bader almost talked him into letting Bader test fly an Me109. Of course, Bader would have tried to escape.
