Lightbulb Re: George Beurling--if looks could KILL!

I can sense a tension in this thread which I certainly did not wish to initiate.

I'd just like to add that there is a most interesting description of Beurling in Laddie Lucas' book 'Malta - The Thorn In Rommel's Side' (Stanley Paul, 1992) in which Lucas is very frank about Beurling's initial weaknesses and subsequent strengths. An entire chapter is devoted to him and is entitled 'Pure Genius'.
