Bloody hell.
That was absolutely outstanding! Raise my cap to those guys, they made a bloody good film. My heart was in my mouth towards the end there. Shows well just how the war in the Med was neglected, and how well people with their backs against the wall can fight.
I remember reading Ronald Dahls experiences in the RAF in the med, he was over in Crete IIRC, and had to hop from airfield to airfield as the Luftwaffe and Wehrmacht got closer and closer. Must dig that book out again sometime...it was well written. 'Going Solo' it was called I believe.
