Reviews

welcome...an interesting read and rare historical account...excellent research here, and I was surprised to see just how much action these crews experienced, sometimes maneuvering with Japanese Zeros and German Messerschmitts...fills a long-standing void --<i>Naval Aviation News</i>; entertaining stories...excellent photographs...worth a look --<i>Stone & Stone Second World War Books.</i>
