At 6 feet 7 inches, Jack "Shorty" Manch was the tallest of Jimmy Doolittle's fliers and also one of the most colorful. This biography details his life as a rambunctious kid growing up in Staunton, Virginia, his pranks in military academies and his incredible adventure as a member of the group who launched the first bombing raid on Tokyo. Manch died a hero, also, and his sacrifice over the skies of Las Vegas is explored in print here for the first time.
