Buch Signiert
xv, 234 pp. Octavo. Original gold-coloured cloth boards. Black lettering on spine and title. Former Aerospace Museum library title. Stamps on the front paste down and title page. Otherwise, a tight, clean copy. Signed by Lieutenant Dunnett on the title page. Illustrated with 22 photographs and a map on the frontispiece. This was a restricted title when it was published, outlining the threat of communism that arose in Malaysia as it related to the Royal Air Force and the Ministry of Defense. The volume outlines the background of the emergency, reviewing the opposing forces and the organizational operations of the air forces in Malaysia. Chapters also detail diverse topics such as the planning and initiation of supply drops, the role of helicopters and the psychological warfare (propaganda) campaign. Photographic reconnaissance was also used, and the intelligence aspect of the air campaign is also reviewed. This seems to be a rare title, and it documents a fascinating chapter in history from the perspective of the Royal Air Force.
