Wingtips in the Waist Windows: B-17s Out of North Africa

"Wingtips in the Waist Windows" is a detailed and fascinating personal account about World War II's thrilling, dangerous air combat. The pilot's diary entries and correspondence, largely between him and his then-girlfriend, reveal the build-up of aviation in World War II and the everyday lives of the folks back home. This book covers the early North African missions out of the Navarin and Oudna airfields between March and September 1943, where the official Army Air Force records have never been found.
