Comments on the assignments he had to complete before being called up. Reflects that young men were keen to volunteer for an overseas adventure, but it became more serious once they saw action. Talks about attending the aircrew Ground Training School at Levin in February 1941, learning to fly tiger moths at the Harewood Elementary Flying Training School, and then being sent to Canada to train under the Empire Air Training Scheme at Dauphin, Manitoba. Comments on training in single-engined Harvards, learning instrument flying, night flying and cross country navigation. Talks about arrival in Britain in late 1941, delay in operational training because of harsh winter weather, and volunteering for the Far East: sent to India rather than Singapore.

Describes the fighters' responses to raids, escorting raids by their bombers, fighter raids on roads and railway lines (rhubarb operations), and debriefing after flights.
