Описание: The Japanese air raids on Darwin on 19 February 1942 are well known to most Australians, but what happened afterwards?For almost two years the airspace over North West Australia was routinely attacked in Japanese air raids, tallying about 70 in total. It constituted the only sustained and intensive direct assault on Australian territory in the whole of World War II – and the whole history of post-1788 Australia – yet, surprisingly, most Australians have no idea that it ever happened.Telling the story of the RAAF's No 1 Fighter Wing, composed of both Australian and British spitfire pilots, Darwin Spitfires explores the little-known 1943 season of air combat over the top end, recovering this important aspect of Australian history.
Ready to Strike is the story of the only Royal Australian Air Force squadron to operate from airfields built immediately behind the front lines of the Normandy battlefield after the landings in France of June 1944.
453 (RAAF) Squadron was a 'for war only' formation. Ready to Strike covers the period from the Squadron's formation in May 1941 to the end of the Normandy campaign in August 1944.
This group of men were bonded by war and their love of flying. There are moments of excitement, pain, suffering, fear, boredom and laughter.
The experiences and operations of the squadron are presented in detail, using many quotes from the pilots and data from their logbooks. The book is fully referenced with chapter end notes and a bibliography.
The Australians were in Normandy too - this is their story.

Описание: This book offers insights into why engagement in commercial sex is prolific as sexual culture is transformed in late modernity.
