Description
Book SynopsisTrade ReviewCombat aviator-historian Jay Stout again demonstrates mastery of his subject, providing an intimate look at the Air Apaches as they bombed and strafed their way from New Guinea to the Philippines and Okinawa. It's all there—the appalling climate, treacherous weather, and a determined, lethal enemy. All honor to Stout for another last-minute grab at history that is rapidly disappearing beyond our national horizon. -- Barrett Tillman, author of Whirlwind: The Air War Against Japan 1942-1945
Informative, exciting, thorough, and stirringly well-written. -- Eric Hammel, author of Two Flags over Iwo Jima
In his latest aviation treasure, historian Jay Stout chronicles the actions of the 345th Bomb Group, better known as the Air Apaches. Gripping firsthand accounts from pilots and airmen make this an enjoyable read about a unit credited with sinking 260 vessels and destroying 367 enemy aircraft during the war in the Pacific. Highly recommended. -- Stephen L. Moore, author of Uncommon Valor
