This operational history of the XX (20th) Bomber Command and its
combat missions from India and China in 1944 and 1945 traces the
development of the Boeing B-29 Superfortress program and the Allied
plans to stage long-range bombers through China for strikes against
Japan's strategic industries. Each of the 49 combat missions flown
by the XX Bomber Command from India and China is examined,
producing the first detailed history of the B-29 campaign flown
from these countries. The book is written almost exclusively from
primary source material-World War II documents, crew member
memoirs, and personal interviews. Special sections within the book
examine issues related to flying across the "Hump" between India
and China; General Curtis LeMay's reorganization of B-29
operations; and the night fighter defense of the B-29 forward
airfields in China.
