AVIATION Military History General

Harry Hawker was an Australian of pioneer stock who left school at twelve and had no further formal education. How did a comparatively uneducated man come to play a key role in Sopwith, the company that produced the Pup and Camel in World War I, and later found his own company which produced Schneider Trophy-winning aircraft between the wars and the Hurricane of World War II?
