The travesty of the film is that he wins the Battle of Britain when it was actually all the other souls who did so. To steal other nations' thunder is disrespectful and to 'spin' the story of a brave man is quite simply untrue. Fantasists are welcome to create whatever wild stories they like just as long as they're not telling lies. Thanks for the appreciation. Appreciated and reciprocated :) Thanks Beck :) The Tom Cruise film is about US pilot Billy Fiske who was, apparently, a really interesting guy who had the privilege of doing many dashing activities in his life but flying for the RAF was the sad episode that brought him to an untimely end and without even a single ‘kill’ to his name.

You, on the other hand, are very much appreciated for getting the content and the connections right.
