ISBN: 9780809496419.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDuring World War II, Canada trained tens of thousands of airmen under the British Commonwealth Air Training Plan. Those selected for Bomber Command operations went on to rain devastation upon the Third Reich in the great air battles over Europe, but their losses were high. German fighters and anti-aircraft guns took a terrifying toll. The chances of surviving a tour of duty as a bomber crew were almost nil.\nMurray Pedens story of his training in Canada and England, and his crews operations on Stirlings and Flying Fortresses with 214 Squadron, has been hailed as a classic of war literature. It is a fine blend of the excitement, humour, and tragedy of that eventful era.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Brand: Time Life Education","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44424150384693,"sku":"ByrdShop_0809496410","price":46.73,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0627\/8139\/0901\/files\/9780809496419_c42e78a7-1303-4056-a95f-c95b9cbd6d8c.jpg?v=1784163520","url":"https:\/\/atxbooks.com\/products\/a-thousand-shall-fall-wings-of-war-9780809496419","provider":"ATX Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
