Seek and Strike RAF Brggen in War and Peace is an anecdotal history of the largest RAF station in Germany. Optimized for a new breed of aircraft, and to NATO requirements, this huge airfield was cut out of the Elmpt Forest, on the German border with Holland, and completed in one year to become operational in 1953. First occupied by a fighter wing equipped with Vampires, Sabres and Hunters, its Seek and Strike motif took on real meaning when the station reequipped with strike, attack and reconnaissance Canberras, followed by strike/attack Phantoms, Jaguars and finally Tornados.RAF Brggen was at the forefront of the Cold War, during which innovation and determination brought it many accolades. It further distinguished itself in the Gulf War and continued to play its part in subsequent monitoring operations in that theater; it was also the only Tornado Wing to operate directly from its home base during the Kosovo campaign.This is the story of a station at war, of the men and women at the sharp end and in support. At work and play, it was they who made Brggen what it was, excelling in all things and justifying a claim to have been RAF Germanys jewel in the crown. With its closure in 2001, the RAF relinquished its last main operating base outside the UK. Brggen was indeed last and best.

The 'RAF Brggen in War and Peace' really captures the essence of life during a pivotal time. I found the historical details fascinating, and the storytelling kept me engaged throughout. If you're into military history, this is a must-read!

Disappointed, felt incomplete
I was really excited about this book, but it felt like it missed some key points in the RAF's history. A few passages were confusing, and I ended up losing interest halfway through. Not what I expected at all.

An excellent perspective on the RAF
I enjoyed 'RAF Brggen in War and Peace' thoroughly! The depth of research and the way it chronicles the experiences of the RAF was impressive. The chapters were well-structured, making it easy to follow along. Definitely worth the read!

Informative but a bit dry
While the book is packed with great information about the RAF's role, I felt some sections dragged on a bit. It’s perfect for history buffs, but I wished for a little more narrative flair. Overall, a solid read.

Great insights, less about personal stories
This book does a fantastic job detailing events, but I was hoping for more personal accounts or stories from those involved. If you're looking for facts and figures, you'll love it, but I was after something more heartfelt.
