FROM FLEDGLINGS TO FIRST U.S. FIGHTER SQUADRON ON WESTERN FRONT,
By MONTGOMERY (WASHINGTON, DC - U.S.A.) - See all my reviews
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: First to the Front: The Aerial Adventures of 1st Lt. Waldo Heinrichs and the 95th Aero Squadron 1917-1918 (Schiffer Military History) (Hardcover)
This book offers a rich and fascinating story --- told largely through diary entries made by Lt. Heinrichs during his service with the 95th, from excerpts of letters from some of Heinrichs' fellow pilots, and from the squadron's Official History --- of the first U.S. fighter squadron to see combat on the Western Front.
Heinrichs also sheds light on the type of flight training (rather extensive, divided between the French system and the embryonic American training scheme) he received in France during 1917 and early 1918. On the whole, a very well-structured and readable book. |
