John Mitchell had a remarkable career. An RAF Volunteer Reserve officer, he was mobilized on the outbreak of war and just missed going to join a Battle Squadron in France where he would have undoubtedly been killed. His is an exceptional story, told with wit to author Sean Feast who has added his usual authoritative and informed insights.
