5.0 out of 5 stars
reminiscent of Stephen Ambrose's classic BAND OF BROTHERS,
This review is from: LIBERATOR BOMBER: LT.EUGENE T. WINN (Hardcover)
In December 1941, in response to Japan attacking Pearl Harbor, the United States declared war. Consequently the other Axis powers, Germany and Italy declared war on America. By 1942 a draft was instituted. Twenty-three years old Gene Winn knew he was going to be drafted into the Army so instead he enlisted in the Army Air Corps. He served in the European Theatre of Operation until his plane went down in 1944 and he and his crew were helped prisoners by the Germans.
This is a terrific insightful look back at one soldier during World War II that brings to life through his letters, his family's correspondence, official memos, and other related documents, the life of an airman and the impacts on his loved ones during 1942-1945. LIBERATOR BOMBER provides a unique perspective to the war as Dr. Frederick Ware Huff using real historical papers that make up much of this super tome paints a perceptive look back. History buffs, especially WW II aficionados, will want to read this strong life in a soldier reminiscent of Stephen Ambrose's classic BAND OF BROTHERS. Harriet Klausner
