I volunteered for the Royal Air Force Volunteer Reserve in 1939.

I was not called up until the following year - in fact during the Battle of Britain. I was not asked to go into air crew, but into the RAF Regiment, which grew out of the problems of defending and capturing airfields.

However, I lived through the Battle of Britain and the subsequent hopes and fears, and would like to record the way in which the Hand of God protected our land.
