Summary "Dave Dawson on Convoy Patrol" by Robert Sidney Bowen is a thrilling novel written in the early 1940s. This story follows the adventures of Dave Dawson, an American pilot serving in the Royal Air Force during World War II, alongside his British friend Freddy Farmer. They find themselves embroiled in dangerous missions and secret orders while patrolling coastlines and skies, facing the relentless threat of the Nazi Luftwaffe and U-boats. The opening of the novel introduces a high-stakes situation in London, where Dave and Freddy are grounded during a relentless bombing raid. As they navigate their unease about missing out on combat, they receive mysterious orders from the Air Ministry, eventually leading them to their assignment with a Coastal Command squadron. Their mission quickly escalates into a complex and daunting operation involving surveillance of a heavily armed Nazi refueling ship for U-boats, putting their lives at risk as they must feign distress while remaining vigilant to enemy threats. The protagonists' camaraderie amid wartime uncertainty sets the stage for an exciting and suspenseful narrative filled with danger, loyalty, and the overarching specter of betrayal.
