Not Bloody Likely! Owen Jack Bollam

We were the daredevils of the world, weren't we - the dashing young aviators of World War II. We were supposed to find out whether we were going to live or die by daring the Devil, and I was never to be outdone in those early days. From early victories at school cricket, Owen Jack Bollam knew what it was like to feel invincible. After joining the Royal Air Force during the war, training as a pilot in the US and then becoming a flying instructor in the Royal Canadian Air Force, he found his great mission in life. Despite recounting some of the darkest days of world history, and commemorating the bravery and sacrifice of so many, Not Bloody Likely! is the memoir of one man who managed to retain his sense of adventure.
