Descripton: From the back cover: Joe Leach was a member of the Militia before the war, but when the European conflict began he applied to join the RAAF. Before long he was training as a Wireless Air Gunner and was soon on his way, via the Panama Canal and America, to join the air war over Britain. After a prolonged operational tour in 10 Squadron Sunderland Flying Boats - much of it spent tracking and attacking German U-boats off the Biscay coast of France, he eventually looked to home and the Pacific War. Includes an account of an attack on U-664.
