Service with a Smile Bert Cranthorne

This book is a record of a boy school-leaver in the late 1930?s who found himself working in Londonjust before the second world war and caught up in the Blitz. He volunteered for service in the Royal Air Force and trained as a bomber navigator completing 38 operations. The book is filled with cartoons, drawn at the time, showing a ?tongue in cheek? record of his training and operating experiences. A lighter way to recall the life of a wartime ?Bomber boy?.
