Helpful Score: 2

This book covers a lot more than the one incident the cover illustrates. It is about the kind of men who formed the American bomber crews and and flew the German fighters in World War II. The two officers pictured on the cover serve as the thread all the other stories branch from.

I found this book engrossing. The highlights were the description of the central incident and the last chapters dealing with the attempts of the two men, after forty years, trying to find out what happened to the other.

As a veteran myself, I found my eyes misting up as the two men finally contacted each other.
