Angus Wallace covers the Special Duties squadrons that flew SOE agents and supplies into occupied Europe — the night-flying, moonlit navigation, improvised landing strips, and the extraordinary skill required to land Lysanders in French fields. This is the unglamorous logistics-and-aviation backbone of the secret war that rarely gets its own episode. Well-researched and properly focused on the operational mechanics rather than the glamour of espionage.
