Description	Goodbye, Mickey Mouse is a historical novel by Len Deighton published on October 12, 1982. Set in Britain in early 1944 it tells the story of the 220th Fighter Group of the US Eighth Air Force in the lead up to the Allied invasion of Europe. The Group is based at the fictional Steeple Thaxted airfield in Norfolk.The novel successfully evokes wartime Britain with the effects of rationing and the simmering antipathy the British servicemen felt towards their well-paid American allies. It also features Deighton's trademark technical and operational details of the P-51 Mustang fighter which the Group flies. The aerial scenes are few and brief but powerfully capture the terror and excitement of bomber escort missions over Germany.
