Summary: Review of Missions Remembered
Review: This book is a collection of stories written by fighter pilots, in all theaters of operation, during WWII. There is the mission that resulted in the death of young Joe Kennedy. The ceremonial fly over above the Battleship Missouri as General Douglas MacArthur accepted the Japanese surrender. There are stories of ditching at sea, dogfights over Germany and stories of escape and evasion. This is a timeless book that will always merit the attention of those who have an interest in the Air War of WWII.

Summary: Great flying experiences By Combat Pilots
Review: This book is a must read for anybody who flys. It is a series of short two or three page stories by flyers before the age of jets. It is the kind of book a busy person can read to fill in those times when you are waiting to do something else since most stories are complete in just a few pages. These a combat stories telling what damage fighter planes can do and what dangers the pilots endure.
