Deadly Sky: The American Combat Airman in World War II [Reprint edition | Retail] 045147564X, 978-0451475640

  • Commentary
  • “From the training camps to the combat missions, this is war from the perspective of the young Americans who lived through it: the pilots, the bombardiers, the navigators, and the gunners of all the combat services in both Europe and in the Pacific. It is an engaging and vivid portrayal of war in the skies from 1941 to 1945.”—Craig L. Symonds, Author of World War II at Sea
