The captivating life story of a RAF flying ace, one of the Battle of Britain's renowned pilots, and the famed squadron that launched him into history. Eighteen-year-old Acting Pilot Officer John Freeborn joined the already distinguished 74 'Tiger' Squadron at RAF Hornchurch on 29 October, 1938. Initially equipped with Gloster Gauntlets, John met fellow pilots like Bob Stanford Tuck and South African ace Adolf 'Sailor' Malan, whom he found to be a determined leader and skilled flyer, though John believed he could outmaneuver Malan's marksmanship.
