From the tragic loss of courageous airmen who gave their lives for our freedom to the gentle breezes that swirl through graves in a quiet cemetery in Belgium's countryside, Bob Steele takes us on a personal journey of history and revelation as he recounts the story of his uncle, a gunner on a World War II bomber, and his own personal quest to uncover the fates of the crewmen, their families, and gracious Europeans who honored them. Any fan of Eighth Air Force history and the sacrifices made by American airmen in the defeat of the Third Reich will find this story informative, poignant, and well worth the read.
