The most savagely fought air battle of World War II was Second Scweinfurt (commonly known as "Black Thursday") when 600 U.S. airmen fell victim to German fighters and flak. This book traces the path of one young flier from his Missouri farm to the skies over the Third Reich where he was killed and then buried with honors by German civilians.
