Hello!
About 15 years ago in the Gulf,i stumbled on a series of books about a very funny canadian fighter pilot in the first world war.The author managed very skilfully an accurate picture of RFC squadrons,their characters,the "ambiance" and the tragedies of the time whilst refusing any dramatisation;he just looked through the eyes of that candid,blundering young man from the colonies.
I tried to complete the trilogy but failed and to top it up,I lent them to a friend who enjoyed them so much he kept them.
the titles were something like :"Mom,it's me in the picture" and "It's me again " or something very close.
Come on,help me,I'm begging!
