Known as the 'Carpetbagges', this squadron had to spend a month at RAF Tempsford in Bedfordshire UK (Churchill's MOST SECRET Airfield) learning how to fly without lights during the moon period to parachute supplies and secret agents behind enemy lines. This book details the origins of William Donovan's Office of Strategic Services and their work in Britain as well as providing accounts of their missions and the experiences of the Carpetbaggers at what they called 'The Tempsford Academy'.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Bernard O'Connor\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1447880587\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781447880585\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Lulu Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 11\/11\/2011\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 212\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.57lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.27h x 5.83w x 0.45d","brand":"Bernard O'Connor","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":45897259188479,"sku":"9781447880585","price":16.05,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_46c4412c-036c-486d-9ee3-0806e6998790.jpg?v=1721373530","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-tempsford-academy-bernard-oconnor-9781447880585","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
