Book Synopsis Liberando: Reflections of a Reluctant Warrior by : John E. Horn
Download or read book Liberando: Reflections of a Reluctant Warrior written by John E. Horn. This book was released on 2019-06-21. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Merriam Press World War 2 Memoir Series. John H. Horn's wartime experiences as a B-24 pilot in the famous "Liberandos" bomb group, the 376th, are recounted in this work by his son, John E. Horn. Horn was one of millions in World War II who did their jobs. He was mighty lucky and blessed to have come home unscathed. Most of the real learning about air combat was on the job. Military schools and training don't really produce combat-ready men and women. They produce attitudes as well as thinking and re-acting skills. Actual combat is the real teacher. John was forever grateful to his crew and the leaders of the 376th Bomb Group who suffered his inexperience and naiveté. Without their patience, he would not have developed into a competent, safe, and living combat pilot. 31 photos, illustrations, maps.

Book Synopsis World War II: Air War by : Stephen W. Sears
Download or read book World War II: Air War written by Stephen W. Sears. This book was released on 2015-05-20. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The air war over Europe during World War II proved that combat in the sky can be even more devastating than combat on the ground. When the war ended, every major city in Germany was virtually destroyed. A German writer admitted that his own nation, in taking up the sword to conquer the world, had "summoned up those bands of furies which raced across the German skies." Here, from the acclaimed historian Stephen W. Sears, is the story of Europe's air war.
