Normandy Breakout by Nicolas Trudgian Wing Commander Geoffrey Page had no business risking life and limb at low level in a Spitfire in the maelstrom of D-Day and the heavy fighting that followed.  On 12th August 1940, during the height of the Battle of Britain, he had been shot down in his Hurricane in flames.  Page scrambled out of the inferno, baling out into the sea, but his burns were so severe he spent most of the next two years in hospital undergoing skin grafts.  Most would have called it a day, but not the young Page.  Showing the hallmark determination common among fighter pilots, he was back in the air by the spring of 1943.  Immediately successful, on 29th June he and another pilot shot down 6 enemy aircraft in one ten minute encounter and by the following summer he was given command of 125 Wing.  By D-Day Geoffrey Page commanded 132 Squadron's Spitfires, taking an active role in the invasion, and the heavy fighting in the weeks that followed.
