CANADIAN WARPLANE HERITAGE



	Sometimes the price of courage is high, but the rewards for it are priceless. "Into the Fire" is tribute to the bravery and valor of Canadian Pilot Officer Mynarski. During a night raid on Cambrai, France, he lost his life while trying to free his rear turret gunner from certain death. High in the night sky above Germany the darkness is a lonely and unforgiving place. Night Warriors is a sketch of a bomber pilot and a brief look at what awaited in the darkness for Canadian bomber pilots during WWII.
