A father's search for his lost son after one of the most mysterious and tragic plane crashes in war history, Beneath Haunted Waters is the tale of two B-24 Liberator bombers that disappeared in California's Sierra Nevada mountain range in early December 1943. One aircraft wasn't found until 1955 in a reservoir in the forest. The other airplane was discovered in i960 in a lake, high in the mountains. This is the story of these two Liberators and the crew members who died so young. It's also the story of one fathers devotion: Clinton Hester looked for his pilot-son Robert for the next sixteen years, dying one year before Robert and his compatriots' remains were discovered. The crash site at Hester Lake is named in the Hesters' honor. While memoirs by those who served during the war, histories of military and political leaders, and books about combat are common, very little has been written about the terrible toll of aviation training accidents during the war. Beneath Haunted Waters tells this unknown and unappreciated story. Book jacket. Aucune description trouvée dans une bibliothèque |
