August 30, 2024 – Premiering the New 303 Squadron Book Trailer! – We’re super excited about our new book trailer for 303 Squadron! Today is the anniversary of the Squadron’s first victory on August 30, 1940 — the day before it was declared operational — when during a training exercise Lieutenant Ludwik Paszkiewicz downed a Messerschmitt 110. We thought it would be an appropriate time to premiere our fabulous new trailer. Check it out!

As in past years, Aquila Polonica was pleased to donate copies of 303 Squadron, along with its other titles, for the Polish Perspectives booth. We also sent copies of a short brochure of our Aquila Polonica titles and a flyer we’ve created titled “Poland in WWII: Quick Facts”—which is a quick summary of the key aspects of Poland’s role as one of the Allies in WWII. Books, DVDs and flyers were given away to teachers before the Conference’s end.
