In 1940, the defense of Great Britain rested with a handful of volunteer aircrew, Churchill's 'few'. Overshadowed in later folklore by the more famous Spitfire and Hurricane pilots, there were other pilots, observers and air gunners flying the Bristol Blenheim MKIV-F. The future of the country depended also on their skill, morale, and sacrifice.
