Ep227: Laugh or Fly - 1918: Could it Get Any Worse?

Pete & Gary's Military History

By early-1918 the strategic situation of the Great War had shifted dramatically. New partners were joining the fight, and old Allies were dropping out. And on the ground the pressure was mounting, as the Allies faced a new German onslaught. In the skies over the Western Front, the men of the RFC kept fighting, and kept dying. Pete and Gary continue the stories of the men of the Royal Flying Corps, based on their new book, Laugh or Fly.
