Some of Wing Commander Boulding’s many letters to author Dilip Sarkar - Credit: Dilip Sarkar Archive Fascinated by the Battle of Britain from an early age, author and historian Dilip Sarkar realised that recording and sharing The Few’s memories was of paramount importance The Few were the airmen of the Royal Air Force and aviators of the Fleet Air Arm of the Royal Navy who fought the Battle of Britain in WWII. Winston Churchill referenced them when he said: Never, in the field of human conflict, was so much owed by so many to so few. Since the mid-1980s, Dilip Sarkar has collected and researched letters to and from individual pilots. These letters now represent a fascinating primary source, confirming the close relationship the author enjoyed with his heroes and high esteem in which they likewise held him. One of The Few that features in Dilip’s book is Wing Commander Roger Boulding.
