Condizione: Neu. nach der Bestellung gedruckt Neuware - Printed after ordering - The men and women who were young adults in WWII have been called 'TheGreatest Generation'. Although they were ordinary people, theyaccomplished extraordinary things. WW II: A Pilot's Experiencetells one such story, the story of an 18 year-old boy from ruralLouisiana who volunteered for service, like million of others whoresponded at their country's time of need. His choice was the US ArmyAir Force. His story provides an up-close and personal look at thedetails and rigors of pilot training and preparation for combat.Like so many of his generation, Lt. Burch was thrust into a positionof command and leadership at a tender age. The reader discovers thechallenge he experienced as pilot of a crew of 10 young men on a B-17 asit flew into the heat of combat. Strong bonds form between the young menin the face of such challenge.The adjustments young people made at the time of war are great, yetthe book illustrates the remarkable ability of young people to adaptat the time of their nation's need. This book illustrates theadaptations of young civilians to military life, the excellent andintensive training the young military personnel receive prior to combatand their adjustments to civilian life after military service. WW II:A Pilot's Experience rekindles memories of those who served and is avivid personal account of WW II for others. Pictures of many aspects ofthe lives of military airmen enhance the story.
