McGaugh, ScottINTO THE FIRESTORM: The Allied Heroes Who Flew World War II's Most Daring Missions Complete history of the C-47 aircrew who helped turn the tide of war. Drawing on after-action reports, letters, and personal diaries, reveals the extraordinary courage of these crews in a complete history of their experiences. Aircrews of the C-47 were ordered to fly straight, low, take no evasive action, and arrive 'on time and on target.' Introduces the college students, farmhands, and store clerks who were thrust into service, many of whom would never return. Yet their contribution to the war was crucial. Without resupplies from C-47s, Patton would have lost the Battle of the Bulge. Without the willingness of these aircrews to fly directly over the Himalayas, Japan's war in the east may well have prevailed.
