Bob Body is a well known authority on the work of the WW2 Special Duties Squadrons based at RAF Tempsford. "Taking the Wings of the Morning" is his personal story of the search for a missing relative who served on one of the Squadrons. The experience gained during that search has prompted and enabled him to research further and to help other relatives of Tempsford aircrew to discover the wartime history of their family members. Bob's new book about the Tempsford Squadrons - "Runways to Freedom", is based on years of extensive research and many conversations with veterans and family members: this is the true story of 138 and 161 Special Duties Squadrons "from the inside". From the beginning of the Special Duties operations at Tempsford to the end, and with many detailed mission reports and personal experiences, the book tells the human stories behind the statistics, and gives readers a glimpse into a world which has been shrouded in mystery until now.
