In this new 8th Air Force unit history, Perry Watts sets out the
history of the USAAF 467th Heavy Bombardment Group, which was based
at Rackheath, Norfolk, in the east of England, during 1944-1945. In
contrast to the operational focus of many books on the USAAF in the
period, the author presents the B-24 Liberator Group's story as a
seamless whole. The main feature of this work lies in its usage of
a wealth of primary sources, ranging from contemporaries' diaries
and notes of airmen of every rank from private to deputy base
commander, to USAAF official records of incidents and occurrences
in the line of duty. To date, many of the works on this subject
have relied on secondary borrowing or hearsay - this book lets the
men who were there speak for themselves with their own voices. Yet
while offering direct access to their experience, it also is
unafraid to note ambiguities in accounts where these should be
noted and to present all available information to enable the
readers to decide for themselves.
