Immigrants of War is a collection of memories of the thousands of Americans who volunteered for service with the Royal Air Force and Royal Canadian Air Force during the Second World War. The book is an ongoing project, now in its 10th edition. I welcome photo scans and information which would assist in documenting this important story.
