Australia's Few. 8 September 1940

7 September had been an incredibly busy day for Fighter Command in the London area but Ken Holland was having a quietish time at Warmwell, though he was on duty. On the day London was blitzed, Ken and 152 Squadron’s Green Section were out on a patrol. Ken was Green Three. Two of his section chased a Dornier 215 over Lyme Regis but Ken ‘saw nowt’. By the 8th it was clear London had had a major battering and fears of an invasion were reinvigorated. Ken recorded a ‘Big Invasion flap’ but, even so, there was ‘no flying all day’ for him.
