Canadian George Beurling DSO DFC DFM (1921 - 1948) was the top fighter pilot Ace in the brutal Battle/Seige of Malta in WW2, & Canada’s top WW2 Ace. He was a superb Spitfire fighter pilot. He survived many crashes, but died tragically in an aircraft crash in 1948. Hope you enjoy. Cheers.

 
If anyone is interested in how a RAF pilot on Malta in those days experienced the fighting, read Dennis Barnham's book "One Man's Window" and you will understand how thankfull we may be for these guys and how the people on Malta suffered every day and night.
