Memories of a South African fighter pilot and POW in the Korean war. Personal accounts of those ineffably gruelling years and beyond
This book is a collection of biographical stories from the life of Lt Gen Denis Earp, former Chief of the South African Air Force 1984-1988.
It allows us a glimpse of the personal experiences that helped to shape the man who later played a large role in the shaping of the SA Air Force from his childhood diversions and youthful escapades, through years in active service, to his role as husband and father, innovative aviator and maverick Air Force leader. His ambitions; his hopes and frustrations; his delights and despairs.
These are tales that will appeal to those who have an appreciation of history. And they will resonate with those veterans who experienced the same horrendous ordeals as he did in the "Forgotten War" in Korea, or those who served with him in the "Unspoken of" war in South West Africa and Angola
