The Men and Boys Who Flew the B24s Over Germany 1944-45.
Stephen Ambrose celebrates the courage of ordinary people, their ingenuity, and their "ability to rise to the occasion" in 'The Wild Blue'. Here is the story of how the American Air Force recruited and trained those who would serve in the most dangerous and demanding jobs in World War II. Through interviews and personal stories, Ambrose describes the experiences of these ordinary-extraordinary young citizens who mounted an offensive air war that destroyed the German war machine.
