The story

On Christmas Eve 1957, Flying Officer Freddie Hook, who is stationed at RAF Celle air base in Lower Saxony, West Germany, is downcast at being unable to visit his family owing to his leave being denied. He discovers that his wingman, who had been granted leave, is barred from flying as a consequence of an arm injury sustained during a snowball fight. Seizing the opportunity, he moves to take the latter's place and proceeds to secure permission from his commanding officer to fly home overnight, despite having received his night rating only recently.
