Night by Noel Monks on Squadron 73 in France

The narrative recalls the RAF No. 73 fighter squadron in 1940 France, its pilots like Cobber Kain and Fanny Orton, their battles over Rouvres, Normandy routes to Nantes, and the squadron’s eight months of intense air defense with nearly 100 enemy aircraft destroyed. It honors fallen crew and the morale and organization under pressure as they evacuate to England.

At Fort Monmouth the Army Signal Corps shows how trained homing pigeons can maintain rapid messages when radios fail.
