A History of the 42nd Bombardment Group (M)
« on: November 28, 2003, 08:19:19 PM »


I have completed the scan of this book and am offering passages from it for the next several weeks. For those interested, you can find them on my  website. The site is not pretty, it's my first attempt at this. It was done so I would be able to share.

The total scan took over 250MB, so for the next week I will offer Chapters 1 through 4.  More will follow if there is interest in the following weeks.  The size of the files vary between 1 and 4 meg. You will need Adobe Acrobat Reader to view the chapters, a link there is provided if you don't have it.

Hey Wx, thanks for making this fascinating story available to us.  I couldn't stop reading it.  It reminds me of Martin Caidin's novel "Whip", only these guys did it for real.

WxMan thanks for posting this. Even though its just historical referrence for the most part it is very valuable to someone and hopefully they are getting their chance to see it again. Thanks!

Sorry to hear about the loss a few weeks ago as well. God Bless!
