Résumé
Bendiner, a navigator aboard a World War II B-17, describes some of the daring and deadly American air battles in which he participated and the strategy behind them. Two of the missions were attempts to obliterate the ball-bearing plants in… Schweinfurt, which were indispensable to the German war machine. Flying unescorted most of the way, the B-17s encountered fierce resistance from the Luftwaffe and flak batteries. Some strong language. , , and some strong language. 1980
