About this title

Synopsis

Records the fighters of the 'Forgotten Army' in the Far East. Allied air photographic squadrons flew, often through appalling weather conditions, against an implaccable enemy, often in aircraft unsuited to the task, and frequently unarmed, to discover Japanese movements across a 2,000 mile frontier. 16 pages of colour profiles depict camo/markings of RAF, FAA, RAAF, USAAF, IAG and AVG types. 200 black/white photos. 256 pages. Hardback.
