Description
The incredible exploits of 303 squadron might have been lost to history forever had it not been for one of the Polish pilots, Miroslav Feric. He made it compulsory for his comrades in the squadron to write an entry on a regular basis. This diary has never been fully translated into English before and is a key source of information on which the dramatised documentary is based. The film tells how initial mistrust and prejudice against the Polish pilots by RAF top brass, delays their decisive entry into the war. Shock and disbelief soon replaces any doubts, as these battle hardened pilots become the most successful squadron in the Battle of Britain.
