The Spitfire was one of the finest fighters of the war; aviation historians and laymen alike often claim it to be the most aesthetic.
Spitfires played a major role in the Greek Civil War, flown by the RAF and SAAF during 1944 and 1945, and by the Royal Hellenic Air Force from 1946 through the end of the war in 1948.
Some air forces retained Spitfires in service until well into the 1960s, while some pilots who flew Spitfires in World War II were able to remain in service for decades; for example, Flight Lieutenant "Joe" Kmiecki, a Polish pilot who flew Spitfires during the war, did not retire from the RAF until 1981.
