"The book deals with the condi- tions under which young men can become officers of the R.A:F., and tho amenities of the R.A.F, Cadet College at Cranwell, whole re- oruits undergo a two years' train- ing course and emerge, if suc cessful, as pilot officers. Op portunities, of services in the Mid- dle East, Iraq, India, Palestine, Trans-Jordania, and the Miditer ranean, ara discused, and also a schomo of short-service"commis- sions, under which recruits serve for a short time on the active list, and then are transferred to the reserve, is expounded,

Opportunity for young men who wish to follow their normal occupations and carry out a certain amount of fly- ing training is afforded by the Special Reserve and Auxiliary Squadrons of the Home Defence Force, the organisation of the auxiliary squadrone being similar to that of the Territorial Army.
