During WWII, Iowans of the "Mighty Eighth" Air Force were based in
England from 1942 to 1946, a year after the end of WWII. Ground
crews labored endlessly to keep aircraft flyable by scavenging and
often manufacturing parts until supply lines could be established.
Aircrews flew in un-pressurized, unheated, piston-engine airplanes
where temperatures inside the aircraft reached sixty degrees below
zero. Read the experiences of over three hundred Iowa veterans of
the greatest air armada ever assembled, Iowans of the The
Might Eighth.
