Thanks for the lovely welcome, guys. Just finished my first petrol, barely making it home under allied aircraft strafing. Pretty intense.

Captain Coward · 09-03-16, 06:59 PM

No war stories here, just a boring patrol in the CF region hoping to stumble upon a convoy.

Thank goodness for Marlene Dietrich! Wonderful music to listen to while on patrol.

A big "thank you" to the person who put the download together here.
