Night and Day Bomber Offensive: Allied Airmen in World World II Europe

by Philip Kaplan and Jack Currie

Book Overview

For much of World War II England provided the only western European base from which the British and American air forces could take the war into Nazi-occupied Europe and Germany itself. The American Eighth and Ninth Air Forces struck enemy targets by day at great distances, often on raids of eight or nine hours duration, while the RAF flew most of its demanding missions at night.
