What was it like...To solo ten hours after your first airplane ride? To be given control of the most complex aircraft in the world? To fly 12 hour missions often at night, always over water, to find a target one mile square? To see clouds of flak bursting around you, putting out the sun? To wonder if that glint on the horizon is a squadron of Zeroes headed your way?To watch your friends take off and wonder if you'll see them again? To be a hero and not know it?This unique "scrapbook" includes 1,000 photos, maps and illustrations that bring the War in the Pacific to life through a young pilot s eyes.
