Gerald, a decorated veteran of the Great War and a founding member of the legendary 56 Squadron, achieved twenty-six aerial victories before transitioning to a pivotal role as an instructor and later, a distinguished Station Commander in the Second World War. Following in his brother’s courageous footsteps, Michael Constable Maxwell joined 56 Squadron in 1940, flying Hawker Hurricanes through the heat of the Battle of Britain. His subsequent career involved perilous night-fighter sorties in Beaufighters and Mosquitos across occupied Europe. Drawing upon personal records and first-hand combat accounts, Alex Revell provides a definitive and gripping narrative of these two exceptional airmen. This biography captures the spirit of brotherhood, the evolution of aerial combat tactics, and the profound dedication of two men who defended their nation across two world wars.
