I own a copy of this book. It belonged to a B-17 pilot named John Jones. He ended up in the 34th Bombardment Group. He went on to become an Air Force Colonel. He was my neighbor and friend until his death a few years ago.

My friend, Charles Pedrotta, is in this book. Great to see this online. Thanks for helping preserve their history.
