The man who saved Britain - By: D. Irwin, 21 Jun 2007
If Keith Park had been an American a movie would have been made about him.

The British treated him as a Colonial. He was not one of the old school. His success created enormous jealousy amongst those that were. One example is Leigh-Mallory who did everything he could to undermine Park. His pedantic behaviour & lack of cooperation with Park during the battle of Britain could have resultedin the loss of the Battle. Britain should should count itself fortunate that a man of Parks skill & mana was the commander of Group 11 at that most important timein history.
