RAF Quartet 02 - A Good Clean Fight RAF Quartet 03 - Damned Good Show Hullo Russia, Goodbye England ABOUT THE BOOK On the 25th August 2015 we commemorated the 75th anniversary of the Battle of Britain. This is the story of a fictional RAF Squadron. They joined an RAF that was known as 'the best flying club in the world' - but when War pitches the young pilots of 409 Squadron into battle over Germany, their training, tactics and equipment are soon found wanting. The men's gung-ho spirit never dies, but it takes a beating in the flak and fighting over the Ruhr. Here the reality of war is all too apparent: chaos, cock-up and comradeship in equal measure. Damned Good Show" explores the story of the fictional 409 Squadron RAF between the outbreak of war in 1939 and the end of Bomber Command's "learning" period, summer 1941. It covers the initial Phoney War leafleting, "Gardening" mine-dropping missions, and the commencement of more dangerous missions over Germany.
