The latest from Mushroom Models follows is a fine squadron history, this time concentrating on 315 (Polish) squadron 'Deblin'). Formed in early 1941 and initially flying clapped-out Hurricane I aircraft, the squadron then moved on to Spitfire V and IX before finally settling with the Mustang III. Unlike most USAAF squadrons who were also flying the P-51, 315 was involved in a number of different missions through-out its career, from fighter escort, to night fighter, to ground attack and in between doing air defense, patrol and anti-'Diver' work.

Throughout the book are a large number of excellent photos, most taken from private collections and seen here for the first time. There are also a goodly number of excellent color profiles as well as tables of all known squadron aircraft, pilot losses, and victories. All are packed into a larger than usual volume of 136 pages. I found the book to be a fascinating read and one that you will want to have.
