Über diesen Titel

Reseña del editor:

During the horrific first year of air combat over occupied Germany during World War II, Combat Psychiatrists with the Eighth Air Force flew missions with young B-17 Flying Fortress and B-24 Liberator bomber crews to determine the effects of stress and combat on the psychological well-being and health of the crewmen. This is the result of that study. Part psychological experiment, part gripping narrative describing the behaviors and fears of men in combat, this report is a previously classified government document that has been out of print for almost 70 years. Despite this fact, it is one of the best-selling seminal studies of the air war over Europe, as well as being a heart-wrenching expose of the real cost of combat flying. This document has been cited in dozens of books and is the classic study of the air war and its outcome, in terms of human psychological cost. A must-read for any student of World War II combat aviation.
