Reseña del editor
During World War II, in 1943, the RAF was paying a high price in both men and aircraft for its offensive in Europe. In an effort to reduce these losses it was thought advisable to set up a radio countermeasures unit. It was a unique creation and, in the words of AOC, Air Vice Marshal EB Addison (quote) a strange conglomeration (end quote). For the first time in the RAF the bomber and fighter elements were successfully blended while American units were absorbed for operational purposes. Laurie Brettingham's detailed account provides a definitive look at the many elements that made up 100 group, using official records and anecdotal material. Most importantly the people involved, tell their story through their letters, reports and conversations. An easy-to-follow but valuable contribution to understanding radio countermeasures developed during that crucial period of the war. (Quote) The main force has been stood down due to bad weather. But we fly, gentlemen, even when the sparrows are walking.(end quote); Grp Cpt AN Bray, DFC, Station Commander.
