Portrait of Kay Hughes c. 1942. By then Kay was a WAAF. INCREDIBLE vintage photographs that illustrate the journey of the forgotten WW2 Battle of Britain hero-pilot have been unveiled in a new book chronicling his triumphs during the fierce aerial fighting that saved our nation from Nazi invasion. Pat Hughes was an Australian fighter ace of World War II and served with the Royal Air Force in the UK and was credited with as many as seventeen victories during the Battle of Britain, before being killed in action on September 7, 1940. A dramatic landscape shot from the book reveals the horrific consequences of the blaze set on the London docks, which was followed by an alert, after anticipating the German invasion, which thankfully turned out to be a false alarm. Intimate pictures of hero Pat include his sisters; Majorie and Constance and another with his parents; Caroline Christina and Paterson Clarence ???Percy??? Hughes. Other photos include him carrying out repairs on his bike which he would use to reach his base at Martlesahm Heath and a picture of him standing next to three other 64 Squadron pilots. An endearing shot shows him with his canine flying companion Butch, who he would take with him on his journeys and a cheery shot of him smiling while having a picnic at St Eval in August 1940. The stunning pictures are part of a book called A Spitfire Pilot???s Story ??" Pat Hughes: Battle of Britain Top Gun by an aviation journalist, Dennis Newton. The book is published by Amberley Publishing. Stephanie Bladen / Dennis Newton / Amberley Publishing / mediadrumworld.com
