A sensitively written true story by a RAF Bomber Command wartime R/T operator who talked down the crews on their return from operations, met them off duty and so often, mourned their loss within days. The book sparkles with anecdotes and humour yet has a very special poignancy as the author reiterates her deep admiration for these truly remarkable men of Bomber Command.

"There are a plethora of books describing women's contributions to the fight for the free world during World War II, but few are as engrossing and well written as Pip Beck's Keeping Watch...a worthy read."
