last of The Few, Geoffrey Welham @TheRAFClub - with photo thanks to @colour_historypic.twitter.com/ Wellum - not Welham. What a privilege; incredible man and extraordinary pilot; still my favourite book First Light.

"In First Light, Geoffrey Wellum tells the inspiring, often terrifying true story of his coming of age amid the roaring, tumbling dogfights of the fiercest air war the world had ever seen. It is the story of an idealistic schoolboy who couldn't believe his luck when the RAF agreed to take him on as a "pupil pilot" at the minimum age of seventeen and a half in 1939. Geoffrey Wellum was born on 4 August 1921, an only child, in Walthamstow, Essex, to Percy and Edith Wellum.

I have read his book First light many times and feel I got to know him. I spend summers near to Million and always thought I would get to meet him, just by chance as I did not want to bother him, now I wish I had. I shall pay my respects at the church next summer. Now again he can fly. RIP Geoffrey Wellum Sq Ldr

The book opens with Wellum's interview for the Royal Air Force and his training. It then shifts to his participation in the Battle of Britain and to his participation in Operation Pedestal , flying planes to Malta off an aircraft carrier. Excellent book about Geoffrey Wellum joining the Royal Air Force, struggling to become a qualified pilot, and finally being successful by joining a spitfire squadron in time for the Battle of Britain.
