Shot Down and on the Run by Graham Pitchfork MBE
This new edition of Graham Pitchfork’s well-loved book revisits the stories of British and Commonwealth airmen downed over occupied territory. Drawing on interviews, photographs and official documents, Pitchfork covers escapes from the Low Countries to the Far East, the desert to the jungle, the Arctic to the Mediterranean. He also explains MI9’s organisation, training and escape kits alongside the networks and helpers who shepherded aircrew home.
If your original copy is dog-eared, this refreshed volume is worth the upgrade.
