Best.-Nr. vita9750The Erskine Press 2003. First Edition. Signed by the Author by Ray Grayston and Tony Iveson all veterans of the Dambuster Raid. Photographs and related article laid in. Octavo red boards hardcover gilt letters xii 129 pp. Fine As New in a Fine As New mylar protected dust jacket. From dust jacket: In March 1943 the 617 Squadron was formed at RAF Scampton Llincolnshire as a heavy bomber unit specifically for the operations planned against the Ruhr dams. Wing Commander Guy Gibson was chosen to lead the Squadron and was given freedom to pick his own crews. On the evening of 16th May 1943 the famous dam raids took place and though the operation was an outstanding success there was a heavy price to pay. Of the nineteen Lancasters that took off eight planes and fifty-five men did not return. Guy Gibson was awarded the Victoria Cross and thirty-three other airmen were decorated. From January 1944 until the end of the war the 617 operated as a special duties squadron from RAF Woodhall Spa first under Wing Commander Leonard Cheshire and later with Wing Commanders Tait and Fauquier. Many stories have been written about the Dam Busters and the 617 Squadron but this is the only account written by one who was there throughout those turbulent days. hardcover books
1918Best.-Nr. 184831918. Photograp Archive documenting U.S. Army Air Service operations and postwar occupation activity in France during and immediately following World War I with material associated with Frank Holder of the 185th Aero Squadron a unit organized for night fighter operations. The archive supports research into early American military aviation night combat development and the operational environment of airfields near the Western Front including activity around Verdun. The 185th Aero Squadron deployed at the end of the war and known as the "Bats" represents the only U.S. unit organized specifically for night fighter operations placing the material within the development of specialized aerial combat roles in 1918. Identified locations including Reims Varennes-en-Argonne and Rembercourt situate the photographs within active and recently contested war zones. Archive of 65 photographs primarily silver gelatin prints France circa 1918-1919 with image sizes ranging from approximately 3 x 2 to 9.5 x 6.5 inches. The photographs include multiple images of aircraft operated by the 185th Aero Squadron at Rembercourt airfield including Sopwith Camel Fokker D.VII SPAD XII and Breguet 14 as well as an unidentified German aircraft shot down in the Somme. Additional images document tank and troop formations moving through northeastern France the ruins of Reims and other towns and a German column escorting American prisoners of war. Naval images include vessels identified as USS Liberation and Entente anti-submarine ships. Several photographs depict Frank Holder and other personnel with images taken during the postwar occupation period alongside wartime installation scenes. Many photographs retain contemporary captions supplemented by later white labels identifying equipment locations and individuals. The archive documents the intersection of aerial warfare ground operations and occupation activity during the final phase and immediate aftermath of World War I when American forces expanded their presence in France and began transitioning from combat operations to stabilization and occupation roles. The inclusion of multiple aircraft types from both Allied and German forces reflects the fluid and contested nature of air combat during the period while the documented destruction of urban centers such as Reims provides visual evidence of the war's impact on civilian environments. The presence of a specialized night fighter squadron further situates the material within the evolution of tactical aviation. Minor chipping to album page margins; photographs remain clean and sharp. Overall very good condition. A detailed photographic record of U.S. air service activity and war zone conditions in France during World War I. unknown books
1963Best.-Nr. 335426glLondon: Neville Spearman 1963. Octavo navy blue boards hardcover 128 pp. Boards slightly warped; otherwise Near-Fine with neat former-owner bookplate; in a Very Good mylar protected dust jacket with lightly rubbed edges. From dust jacket: This is a true account of a series of colourful incidents in the life of a most modest and brave man. Although a great deal of the book is devoted to descriptions of episodes which took place in RAF Bomber Command it also includes such widely varying subjects as the description of an investiture at Buckingham Palace to the excitement of a long-distance reliability motor trial. The title has been chosen because it represents the motto of the famous No. 83 Pathfinder Squadron in which the author completed his extended tour of night bomber sorites in 1942 taking part in no less than sixty-six bombing raids over Occupied Europe. An unusual feature of Strike to Defend is the fact that the author describes scenes observed from the navigator’s table and from the perspex nose of the bomber. From these positions he was able to observe many dramatic incidents which took place both inside and outside the aircraft. Strike to Defend will appeal not only to those who served in the RAF but also to anyone who is interested in the technicalities of flying air navigation and motor sport.
