Interesting insight to pilot training. Seeing the ages of some of them, I've often thought they might be school kids on work experience.

Exceptional circumstances for the relatively young RAF in WW2 but not expected to be financed by bank of mum and dad - but the population at large 😉.

We owe them a huge huge debt of gratitude.  My uncle has a gentleman in his retirement home who was a navigator on Halifax's. Hair raising tales of do or dare all before he was 21. Another who didnt spoken about it much before his late 80's. 

Different circumstances different times they had to grow up very fast, flying aside, schooling for most finished at 14 😢
