Book excerpt: So recalls an airman in East Anglia during the Second World War. From airfields throughout the region such brave men flew into the cauldron of the European war, many never to return. Along with photographs of the airfields, wall art, and the echoing remains of all that now survives of their bases, such poignant reminiscences make up this tribute to those who briefly made East Anglia their home in time of war. Martin Bowman is among the best-known aircraft photographers in the country and he has explored the many Second World War airfields in East Anglia, taking evocative photographs of all that remains, from ghostly control towers to the graffiti and wall art left by the airmen, many of whom flew to their deaths from this remote corner of England. These airfields hold a fascination for many thousands who visit the area each year in search of this aspect of our military heritage. This book honours those who briefly made East Anglia their home and reminds us of their comradeship and bravery.
