In the final, triumphant chapter of the Second World War, Victory Roll: The Royal Australian Air Force in its Sixth Year of War chronicles the courage, sacrifice, and ultimate triumph of Australia's airmen as they carried the fight to the enemy across vast theatres of war.

Directorate of Public Relations and published by the Australian War Memorial, this official record presents a comprehensive account of the Royal Australian Air Force's operations, personnel, and achievements during the war's conclusive year, capturing the full sweep of aerial combat from the Pacific to Europe.

It illustrates not only the strategic and tactical dimensions of the RAAF's campaigns, but also the deeply human stories of the men and women who served — leaving the reader to ponder the extraordinary cost at which victory was finally won.
