Jack 'Hamby' Hambleton's World War 2 memoir recalls the antics of young 'erks' at war. Jack, an MT driver with the RAF, was involved in many misadventures. Escapades as diverse as carousing with the crew of a Russian submarine in the Shetlands, 'nobbling' a donkey derby in Egypt and being a patient at an RAF hospital filled with outrageous malingerers are all amusingly related here, and much else besides. This is a great book describing what it was like to be an average serviceman in the British forces, in this case the Royal Air Force. No dashing fighter pilot, determined Bomber crew member, air gunner or navigator just a truck driver. The book takes you through the daily routines, humour, tragedy and idiosyncrasies that these men and women went through. From typically mundane working class backgrounds and being whisked off to exotic far off battlefields. Ref UU 6. Signed by Author(s). Nº de ref. del artículo: 031288
