Review: The Wild Blue: The Men and Boys Who Flew the B-24s Over Germany 1944-45

The Wild Blue: The Men and Boys Who Flew the B-24s Over Germany 1944-45 The Wild Blue: The Men and Boys Who Flew the B-24s Over Germany 1944-45 by Stephen E. Ambrose
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

A very good book on the story of the the men who flew the B-24s during World War II. It was incredible to read about a key time in American and world history, focusing mostly on a then young Georg McGovern and the crew he worked with. It is hard to imagine that the majority of those fighting in the war were still teenagers. I especially enjoyed learning more about the B24s, how they were built and flew, and the importance they were to the war effort - Simply Amazing.

If you enjoy American history or military history, this would be a great read.
