- Synopsis
- Robert A. Winston had a long a distinguished career as an aviator in the US Navy between 1935 and 1950. He wrote a number of excellent and fascinating books on his experiences in the Navy before and during World War II. This volume details his adventures as a test pilot flying planes for the Brewster aircraft company, chiefly in Finland in 1940, as the war in Europe gained momentum and the unprepared democracies fell under the weight of Nazi attacks. Forced to flee through Belgium, France and finally Spain, Lt. Winston finally made it back to the United States before being posted to the Pacific as a carrier-borne squadron commander.
