F-16 at 40 – Pt.8 – Going to War: A Pilot's Story

by Paul Dunn
In 1990, Edward Smith was an RAF pilot serving on a dream exchange posting, flying the F-16 with the 4th TFS at Hill AFB, UT. In August of that year Iraq invaded Kuwait, setting into motion a sequence of events which would see him flying missions during Operation Desert Storm alongside his USAF colleagues. Ed has kindly supplied us with the following gripping account of flying his first combat mission, along with some background to how he came to be in that position.

La Boue des Flandres / De modder van de Westhoek

Nothing to see about aviation but for me, the best Belgian book about the Belgian soldiers life and death the start of WW1 in Belgium. Also availlable in Dutch


Jusqu'à l'Yser


Le médecin bruxellois Maurice Duwez (1881–1966) avait déjà tâté de la plume avant guerre sous le pseudonyme de Max Deauville. Lors de l'offensive allemande de 1914, il a pris part, en tant que médecin de bataillon, à la retraite de l'armée belge, d'abord vers Anvers, puis vers le Westhoek. Il restera sur le front de l'Yser, en première ligne, jusqu'en novembre 1915, dans les secteurs de Dixmude, Lo et Lizerne.
Son récit a été publié dès 1917 chez l'éditeur parisien Calmann-Lévy.
Cette édition est enrichie d'une préface inédite de Norton Cru, d'un glossaire et de 70 clichés d'époque.
Editions De Schorre, 2013
Format : 155 x 235
Nombre de pages : 320
Finition : broché

Ce livre sera à nouveau disponible, début 2014, en version néerlandaise sous le titre « Tot aan de IJzer ».
