He saved lives in his final moments…
On 15th September 1940, one of the most famous dates of the Second World War, the skies above Britain erupted in chaos. It was Battle of Britain Day. And somewhere above Kent, a young RAF fighter pilot named Flying Officer Arthur Peter Pease climbed into his Spitfire and took off to intercept the incoming German raids. He never came home.
