WWII Pilots: a book, an appeal
I am in touch with someone who is writing a book about WWII pilots - more a photographic work than an essay.
He is photographing them as they are now and presenting them in a 'before and after' format - young man in uniform standing next to his aircraft etc. He is also recording the interviews on video.
The written format is similar to an obit., but with an emphasis on their wartime experiences.
He has photographed Brits, Aussies, South Africans, a Czech general and a couple of Germans including a general who is the highest scoring fighter pilot still alive.
However, he has no Frenchmen on his list.
I wonder if I could appeal to members of SOAF and ask if anyone knows any Frenchmen (or Belgians) who flew in the war?
If they do, could they kindly write to John Bradley at infoATdontmovetofrance.co.uk ? (not forgetting to replace AT with @).
(SOAF members may also find his website of interest!)
