Like thousands of other young and adventurous Kiwis during World War II the author joined the RNZAF in 1941. After training in Canada and the Bahama Islands as a Wireless Operator/Air Gunner, and a brief period in the UK, he was finally posted to 354 Squadron in Cuttack in the state of Orissa, India, which was an RAF Coastal Command B24 Liberator squadron, with all aircrew comprising Canadians, Australians, and New Zealanders. This story portrays the author's life with an emphasis on the War years of 1939-1945.
