Publisher's Synopsis
A sensitively written true story by a RAF Bomber Command wartime R/T operator who talked down the crews on their return from operations, met them off duty and so often mourned their loss within days. The book sparkles with humour and anecdote yet has a very special poignancy. The author writes of her "deep admiration for the men of Bomber Command who carried the fight to the enemy when no one else could. They were, and are, truly remarkable men." Pip Beck volunteered for the WAAF in 1941. Initially trained as a R/T operator, she later became a wireless operator and was posted to Upper Heyford, Oxon, where, together with service at the satellite station at Barford St. John, she spent the last two years of the war.
