Excerpt
December 6, 1942, somewhere over Occupied France
Jack Hamilton rubbed at the ice collecting around the edges of his oxygen mask and then made a minute adjustment in his course. Everyone on board The Time Machine was tense because of the pasting they’d taken on their last outing, but so far it had been a smooth ride. No fighters. No flak. Fourth time they’d been alerted for the Lille mission, only this time it hadn’t been scrubbed. The briefing was 0345, but they didn’t get airborne until 0900. Now they were about fifteen minutes from their target. No one expected it to stay easy, but after St. Nazaire, well, he was learning to be grateful for the small mercies.
At least it was a short run, just two hours to get over the target, dump their bombs and head back. Almost imperceptibly, he relaxed his shoulders. That’s when he heard it.
“Bandits! Ten o’clock!”
Jack heard the shots and then saw the silver trails from their guns tracking out ahead of them, toward the diving FW’s. One of the bandits kept coming right at them. Red bloomed on the end of its guns again and again.
Jack held his course and kept his eyes open, though neither was easy. At the last moment the FW turned aside.
“Beginning bomb run,” he called out, over the crew chatter in the intercom. Jack turned the plane over to the Ram and they went in for the run. After that it was almost a cake walk to “bombs away.” The crew cheered as they made the turn that meant they were heading home.
