Welsh Dragons of the Battle of Britain

Hear the heroic stories of Welsh fighter aces, who fought off invasion in Britain's darkest hour in the summer of 1940. Welsh men and women gave their all to keep Britain from enemy attack in
World War II. Many left their homeland to take to the skies over southern England, whilst Welsh women worked as Royal Air Force plotters or in munitions factories in Wales to keep Britain safe. How did it feel to take to the air and face the enemy in mortal combat? How did these heroes gain victory for Britain, and what has today's Royal Air Force in Wales learned from their sacrifices? Sally Gethin investigates the hidden stories and heroism of wartime Wales from the families of the fighters and speaks to today's Air Officer for Wales.
