Beschreibung

Quarto, dark blue hardcover with spine lettering and stamped on front board, xii, 378 pp., profusely illustrated. An attractive copy in a worn dust jacket. Scarce copy. Copy number: 1193. This history is a narrative of the recollections, diaries, and news accounts of the men of the 94th Bomb Group, applied to the official record documents in Air Force micro-film and other historical sources. From its activation in 1942 through the end of World War Two and subsequent dispersion in 1945, the 94th Bomb Group flying out of England was an important part of the Eighth Air Force. During the 325 combat missions flown by the 94th, there were both successes and tragic losses, but the men flying and supporting their B-17 Flying Fortresses endured with great courage and fortitude.
