WW2 short story
Wed Mar 16, 2005 3:20 am
Hey all.
Wonder if someone can help me. I'm going to write a short story for the Writer of the Year competition, and I had an idea to do a story about an Anti-Diver patrol (that's V-1 busting to the uninitiated!), preferably with Spitfire XIVs. I know at least 3 squadrons operated them around D-day, and I'm pretty sure one or two were tasked with this duty.
Could anyone provide information on this for me? I know there was some sort of elaborate anti-aircraft measures set up around London and the coast, along with barrage balloons, but I don't know too much about it.
If you can help, drop me a line here, or at my work address: dcogdon@sfc.ac.uk
Thanks in advance
