My Thoughts:
I wanted to do a different genre than young adult to review so I decided non- fiction would be it. Besides young adult novels non-fiction especially military history is my most read genre. This was one of my must reads for the year since it was a really long work. I wanted to read this before the tv show called the Mighty Eighth comes out. This work is on the eighth air force in WWII and those who served in it. There were stories from different members and pictures of crew members. The work is a personal look at those who served at a great risk to their lives. The survival rate was not good but these men went out on missions any way. The book does not shy away from the hardships and what happened to those who were captured when their planes crashed in enemy territory. He did spare any details and made sure the readers knew what these men endured. It is a comprehensive read of the 8th air force and a must read for those wanting to learn about the most covered part of the air force during the war.
