In a vivid wartime vignette from 1941, a trio of RAF pilots, including a flight lieutenant, a flying officer, and a sergeant, earned a special Paris leave after a mission that crippled Goering’s crack fighters. The men, celebrated for their teamwork, downed three M E 110s that day, proving Hurricanes and Spitfires still dominate the skies.
