Description
"A young man's letters from World War II ... contains over 200 letters written by a pilot-in-training to his parents back home in small-town Middle America. Beginning with the first letter, dated January 31, 1943, the correspondence offers ... insight into how the Army Air Force was able to create professional airmen and deploy the largest air armada of all time in a relatively short period. At the same time, it mirrors one man's development from a possessor of his own self-described 'inferiority complex' to an officer leading men into battle"--Jacket.
