Hellfire Corner
by
William Phillips
Towering clouds, the setting sun and the softness of summer in the English country side. What could be more peaceful?
There was a time, however, when that scene was punctured by the sharp edge of was. It was during the Battle of Britain in the early days of World Was II, and it is a time the World will never forget.
Although historians have largely concentrated on the aerial combat over London, there was an area south of the city that saw more than its share of action In fact, German and Allied pilots met so often over a rocky promontory of land south of London that the area earned the title "Hellfire Corner"
