| Description: | When World War II broke out, World War I veteran Major Biggles was in his room talking to some old friends. They were quiet about the radio message announcing the declaration of war and Biggles immediately understood that he was unlikely to be left out. A phone call from the Ministry was not long in coming, and in a short time, Biggles was embroiled in a secret mission and a series of hair-raising adventures. [Suggest a different description.] |
