My father-in-law served in the Army Air Corps in the China-Burma-India theater and flew “over the hump”, so when I found this old paperback in the house I read it. Although it is non-fiction it read like an action adventure story. Well done. It makes me want to find that old movie about the Flying Tigers with John Wayne.

HTML:During World War II, a group of American fighter pilots roamed the skies over China and Burma, menacing the Japanese war effort without letup. Flamboyant, daring, and courageous, they were called the Flying Tigers. The Tigers, who had been recruited from the Army, Navy, and Marines, first saw action as a volunteer group fighting on the side of the Chiang Kia-shek's China against Japan. Trained in the unconventional air-combat tactics of their maverick leader Claire Lee Chennault, they racked up some of the most impresive air victory records of World War II. This is the story of Chennault and his magnificent Tigers and how they performed the impossible. Aucune description trouvée dans une bibliothèque |
