The personnel of the RAF proudly wore their uniform and insignia. Their aspect of the RAF’s history is the focus of this book. It covers the RAF, its predecessors (the RFC & RNAS), the Women’s Royal Air Force (WRAF), the RAF Reserve and Auxiliary formations, the Air Training Corps (ATC) and the little-known Royal Observer Corps (ROC). Undoubtedly it is destined to become the standard reference work on this subject.
The main aim of the book is to aid identification of uniforms and insignia and to describe their significance. This objective is easily accomplished by their volume. The book is structured in an easy to use format which significantly aids these aims.
Each chapter is lavishly illustrated with excellent photographs/ images of the myriad of badges worn by RAF and its associated personnel. One has to congratulate the author on his superb work and I am confident that this book is going to become the standard reference book on this topic.
