Most of us know the story. Hitler considered England a threat to his plans for the conquest of Europe and when she refused to negotiate a peace, he decided to suppress or conquer her. The first stage of that plan called for air supremacy over the English Channel and southern England, to be followed by landings of German troops along the English coast.
The Battle of Britain, so famously named by Winston Churchill, raged in the air from July, through mid September 1940.
