During World War II, author Dale J. Satterthwaite was a B-25
pilot who flew more than seventy missions over Italy and France in
1944. "Truth Flies with Fiction," his memoir, presents a truthful,
firsthand account of the missions and adventures of the real
Catch-22 airmen.
A personal tale full of humor and tragedy, this memoir provides
insight into the life of a B-25 bomber pilot, as well as the
experience of being part of an elite and highly decorated bomb
group. Satterthwaite was awarded the Distinguished Flying Cross
twice, the Presidential Unit Citations twice, and the Air Metal
eight times.
Told through journal entries and letters written home to
Satterthwaite's fiancee, Eleanor, "Truth Flies with Fiction"
includes dozens of photos showing the airplanes in action,
including the aftermath of the Vesuvius eruption that destroyed
eight-eight airplanes at the Pompeii airbase. With a unique
perspective, this firsthand account explains the equipment,
missions, and tactics of World War II airmen and brings their
experiences to life."
Discover the history of the brave settlers who faced and survived
innumerable hardships in the unforgiving St. Croix River Valley.
