Salute Chaps,

A film (http://www.factualtv.com/documentary/Against-all-Odds-The-Quest-for-Malta) I thought would interest you all.

Salute Winger

Haven't had a chance to watch more than 5 minutes, but it looks quite interesting.

As a Canadian, Malta is a big interest for me, 'Buzz' Beurling, Canada's #1 WWII Ace got most of his kills there, and Wing Commander 'Stan' Turner was the leader who did the most to turn around the battle at its most intense point.

I'd love to do a film on the subject.

Winger- Thanks for posting this! I spent an hour watching the documentary yesterday and thought it was very well done. My only issue was with the historian saying that the Glads were left over fighters from WWI!!:eek:

Malta was truly a David vs Goliath story if there ever was one. I'd encourage everyone to check this out.
