American Eagle Squadrons

During the Battle of Britain, the Royal Air Force or RAF had volunteers from different countries from occupied Europe. However, there was a group of Americans who volunteered to fight the cause against Nazi Germany in the skies of Great Britain in 1940. Why did they volunteer? How did they get to Great Britain when America was neutral in 1940? Join a ranger to learn who these American Eagle Squadron were and how they contributed to the RAF in 1940.
