Requirements: .ePUB reader, 252 KB
Overview: It was to go down in history as Bloody April, but to Jackdaw Squadron it was simply another bloody shambles. Major Claypole and his four flight leaders shepherd a quickly diminishing flock of pilots into the skies above France to do battle with the much-vaunted Albatros scouts of the Imperial German Flying Corps. In the claustrophobic confines of the pilots’ mess, Second Lieutenant Morris clings to his faith while Lieutenant Benn grapples with his sanity. On the ground, Charlie’s infantry platoon is suddenly diverted by an explosive twist of fate to become embroiled in a battle in which they should be playing no part. Arrogance, despair, fear and valiance all play their part in this story of the breakthrough that never was: The Battle of Arras.
