B-24 Combat Missions: First-hand Accounts of Liberator Operations Over Nazi Europe Book

B-24: Combat Missions takes the reader through every Liberator crew position to show what it was like to fly—and fight—in the plane that was produced in greater quantities than any other US military aircraft in World War II, including the B-17. First-hand accounts from crewmembers are grouped with archive and commissioned photos of the plane and of items of memorabilia, to bring the stories of "Lib" combat crew alive in truly vivid detail.

• Some 75 first-person accounts, many previously unpublished, from Liberator crewmembers in the ETO
  
• Each crew position is featured in turn—the pilot and copilot, the navigator and nose gunner, the radio operator, the bombardier, the engineer/top turret gunner, the waist gunners, the ball turret gunner, and the tail gunner—to give a complete overview of what it was like to fly a B-24 combat mission
  
• Illustrated with more than 100 items of memorabilia, some 50 specially commissioned photos of B-24 crew positions, and more than 200 archive photos
