Ian McLachlan has spent many years researching a brand new
collection of exciting United States Army Air Force fighter stories
of the Second World War. He has trawled official archives,
interviewed survivors and gained privileged access to personal
letters, diaries and photo albums to relate a series of compelling
stories of the USAAF's fighter squadrons at war. Each story is
self-contained and looks at a particular incident or theme. Among
the selection of diverse stories are the following examples: In
broad daylight - Dutch resistance operatives spirit a young 4th
Fighter Group P-51 pilot away from his captors. Osce Jones -
crash-landing just after D-Day, Osce journeys on foot through enemy
territory, but will he escape? Frank Klibbe - an eventual 56th
Fighter Group ace is fined USD50 for damage to Government property
- one P-47 Thunderbolt. Back from the dead - Harry Howard, a 339FG
pilot turns up to tell the tale after his memorial service.
