Want to know what it was really like...
« on: August 01, 2006, 10:43:27 AM »
to fly B-17's out of England? Then you should read this book.

I have a friend who was a B-17 co-pilot, and he told me this book came the closest to telling what he experienced. The exception was that he had fighter cover most of the time.

I finally got a chance to read it, and it is one of the best I have read! Anyone else read it?
