Bomber Boys Fighting Back 1940-45
Patrick Bishop’s Bomber Boys (which inspired the BBC 1 documentary hosted by Ewan McGregor) tells the story of the incredibly young pilots who flew dangerous missions against Germany from 1940 to 1945.
Coming from all across Britain and the Empire, these brave young men faced an average life expectancy shorter than that of WWI trench soldiers. Every mission meant risking death, injury, or capture as they flew through heavy enemy fire.
Despite their heroism and crucial role in winning World War Two, history treated them differently than fighter pilots. While fighter pilots were celebrated as heroes, the Bomber Boys were largely forgotten and politically sidelined after the war. This book serves as a tribute to their immense courage, ensuring their sacrifices are finally remembered and recorded in history.
