| Publisher Description: - Eyewitness accounts of heavy bombers on D-Day - Rarely told story of what happened above the beaches - Detailed descriptions of various bombing runs In this vivid and dramatic look at World War II in the air, eight different aircrews--three American and five British--tell eye-opening and heart-racing stories of operations before, during, and after D-Day. These bombing missions helped pave the way for the success of the Allies' invasion of Normandy, disrupting German transportation, destroying various installations, and spreading fear and panic. |
