NcIntosh was the starboard-seat navigator for a Jewish-American Mosquito pilot determined to defeat the Nazis single-handed; they completed 41 intruder operations in an aircraft made entirely of wood. He tells the story with wit that throws the tragedy and inhumanity of war into glaring relief. The 1980 edition is here augmented with a scene-setting foreword and a second section of photographs of 418 Squadron of the Canadian Air Force. No index or bibliography. Annotation c.
