The Tee Emm series of training memoranda, also known as "pilots' notes", was created in April 1941 by the United Kingdom's Royal Air Force to aid air personal in the difficult days of World War Two. Intended for official use only, the issues contain highly useful information told in an amusing way and accompanied by cartoons and comical drawings. The character of Pilot Officer Prune is featured throughout, often demonstrating or reiterating the sometimes life-saving tips covered by the contributors. Item #4954
