5.0 out of 5 stars Makes you feel as if you knew them, January 22, 1999

This review is from: U.S.A.A.F. Fighter Stories: Dramatic Accounts of American Fighter Pilots in Training and Combat Over (Hardcover)

This book was a real pleasure to read. It made you feel as if you knew the pilots. The stories from family members and the pilots themselves are truely touching. It makes you realize the brutalness in which these young men lived and died. If you're a WWII Fighter Plane buff, then this is a must read. A big 2 thumbs up.
