For 44 desperate days, a handful of pilots from 75 Squadron held off the might of the Japanese air force, hell-bent on clearing the skies over Port Moresby. At stake were the capture of the key port, cutting our sea links to the U.S. and landings across northern Australia. This is the story of one of the motley band of Blue Jobs who changed the course of Australian history.
