The last flight of Sergeant Ferguson
January 15, 1943. The weather is clear, the sun is shining. Two Royal Canadian Air Force fighters fly over the Bayeux-Caen railroad. A German freight train has just been spotted. The pilot of the first Spitfire, Sergeant Ferguson, aligns his gun sights on the target…From 1942 to 1944, the Allies flew dozens of similar missions over enemy-held territory on a daily basis – and many aircrews were killed in action while participating in these bold actions. Yet their sacrifice awoke some French citizens’ spirit of resistance to the German occupation.
