About this listen
Brought to you by Penguin.
Part war story, part memoir, telling the story of Mark's father's RAF flying boat crew on special duties operations in the Indian Ocean. Through the lens of his relationship with his father and the stories he would share with young Mark when they looked through his logbook together, Mark will bring to life the lives of the men he served with – including the death of his father's best friend in an attack with a Japanese fighter. It will set their story against the wider war fought by the RAF, SOE and the wider war fought by British and Commonwealth forces in the Burma theatre, while weaving in Mark's own friendships with the survivors after the war and his efforts to record and pay tribute to their service and sacrifice as part of his growing interest in medals.
