Fictional account of WWII pilots based loosely on actual events. Book follows the escapades of a small group of friends as they fly missions in different squadrons during WWII. Book states out with these boys as young friends growing up together and moves right in to their WWII flying. Each chapter is a small snippet of their missions all told as entertaining events in their lives as pilots. Very well written and moves at a good pace to keep the reader interested.
