In just two years of service with the USAAF, 22 pilots claimed five or more victories flying the Spitfire. This title helps you to discover the experiences of a variety of American aces in their own words. The first few American volunteers flew Spitfires with the RAF during the Battle of Britain. Many more joined their ranks, often posing as 'Canadians' eventually forming three 'Eagle' squadrons who earned a fierce fighting reputation.
