Two polish officers in a beaufighter destroyed two enemy bombers in a few minutes, night-fighting over the S.W. coast. They attacked the first with cannon from 50 yards range. With a vivid flash, it spun slowly down in flames. As they watched the burning wreckage on the water, another enemy appeared, was attacked, set on fire and sunk in the sea. Two nazi bombers gone in less time than you can read this story... That's what your beaufighter can do. -Ministry of Aircraft Production. Their success. Their confidence.
