Riassunto

Last fighter group deployed by the USAAF to Eighth Air Force in Europe, the 479th FG was the leading unit in aerial and ground-strafing victories in August-September 1944. It won a Presidential Distinguished Unit Citation as a result of this success and this book is a dramatic insight into their extraordinary and heroic war service.
