Résumé
Two months before the outbreak of WWII, seventeen-year-old Geoffrey Wellum leaves school to become a fighter pilot with the RAF. Bursting with youthful energy and enthusiasm, he makes it through basic training to become the youngest Spifire pilot in the prestigious 92 Squadron. Thrust into combat almost immediately, Wellum fends himself flying several sorties a day, caught up in terrifying dogfights with German Me 109s. Over the coming months he and his fellow pilots play a crucial rote in the Battle of Britain. But of the friends that take to the air alongside Wellum many never return. Published for the first tim more than fifty years after the war, First Light is Geoffrey Wellum's gripping memoir of his experiences as a fighter pilot.
