Cable messages in the last fortnight have told of the stirring success of dynamic R.A.F. operations over the invasion ports, northern Franco and western Germany. This article takes you behind the sconds at an R.A.F. base before one of these flights.

Daylight Sweep

Mid-day

Some-

thing new and thrilling is on at the aerodrome. A

wave

of

excitement

courses through the Squadron Leader's office, the Intelligence Room, the pilots' huts. An R.A.F. Daylight Sweep is "on."

I did not need to ask which of the pilots were going over northern France that day to give protection to the bombers who would rain high ex- plosive on Hitler's inva- sion ports and acro- dromes. Expectancy, or envy, was written all over their faces. To be out of a daylight sweep, even for a day, means just blank disappointment.

As I sat with the Squa- dron Leader, his tele- phone buzzed incessantly. He had already passed on to his pilots Fighter Com mand's orders, and talked to them personally on at- tacks, routes, everything. The Intelligence Officer had added his own in- structions.

One by one the leader's right-hand pilots with whom I chatted in the room excused themselves, sidled out to complete the preparations for their hush-hush mission.

"How", I asked one of them, "do

know you where you are to be and what you are to do in one or other of these huge formations, for there must be scores if not hun- dreds of machines over the target area at much the same time, bombers and fighters alike?"

ELABORATE PLANNING

"The complicated general plan must sometimes give Bomber and Fighter Com- mands a headache”, he an. swered, "but for us individu- ally or as a squadron, a sweep is very simple."

"Before taking off we are given a general idea of what we have to do and of our posi- tion in the air. We have a rendezvous somewhere en route, and one squadron will lead from there.

"The rest is team work, which is a matter of training, and experience. In a football jam everybody knows what to do.

Much the same with us. If we attack an enemy forma- tion or single planes, or if we are attacked the flight com- mander may any through his wireless 'I'm

the taking lender. You take so and so', We know the or he may not. man we should tackle."

I asked another pilot for an explanation of the mystery. of the daylight sweeps that chiefly puzzles the public. That is the surprising fact that in most of them the Ger- mans have failed to shoot down a solitary machine and in other cases only one or two.

NOT TO BE MISSED

"Surprise!" he said. “We're too quick for them. It's all over before they quite realise what is happening. That,

and of course the way the raids are planned and or ganised by Bomber and Figh- ter Commands.”

"Well, goodbye for a little while!" interrupted the Squa- dron Leader, grabbing my hand and bolting through the door. "We'll continue our conversation at lunch."

"What, is he going, too?", I asked his deputy.

"Going? You couldn't keep him out of it", he laughed.

12.30 ... There is a hum across the airfield. The first section of Hurricanes is tak- ing off, and the deafening challenging note is taken up by a second, third, fourth see- Lion as they roar into action.

"The famous Millionaires' Squadron", said my inform-

ant. "Look !", he added, thrilled into admiration. "See, how their undercarriages are going up, almost before they are off the ground. That's confidence and skill, for you.

Beautiful!".

The last section had hardly left the tarmac before શ began. second great roar Spitfires! Away they went---- sections one, two, three, four.

"The Poles!" said the lender's deputy. "Cracks, every one of them. Million- aires and Free exiled Poles as station companions. What a democratic combination,"

"Well", he added. "They'll be darned disappointed if they don't get any fun. to- day"
