The Battle of Britain ranks alongside the Battles of Trafalgar and Waterloo as one of the most significant in British History. Without the radar scientists; WAAFs and airmen; volunteers of the Royal Observer Corps; plotters; tellers; and controllers; telephone engineers; production workers in our aircraft factories; airfield ground crews and the Commanders, the valour of ‘The Few’ would not have achieved their mission. The victory combined organisational mastery, governmental support, technological innovation, and industrial capacity with the bravery, commitment and skill of our young pilots.
