No, I'm not forgetting, I asked in my original post if this was something having to do with Eagle Squadron that was never fully fleshed out in the game. While the RAF had multinational units, it was still primarily British, thus having mainly American accents on the radio in the Battle of Britain is a little odd. that needs explaining, or someone just goofed, and my money is on the latter.

from wikipedia article on Non-British Personnel in the Battle of Britain:
The RAF Roll of Honour for the Battle of Britain recognises 574 pilots from countries other than the United Kingdom, as flying at least one authorised operational sortie with an eligible unit during the period from 10 July to 31 October 1940, alongside 2,353 British pilots.[
