As Germany set out to invade Poland, Benjamin Markett was enjoying the relatively simple life of a crop-duster, alongside his father James. Having flown since the age of five, as the war flares up he is presented with a choice, and embarks upon the path of the Army pilot. Making close, lifelong friends during the course of training, he is thrust into the combat zone a year after the devastating attack on Pearl Harbor. Even as Ben learns about the wider world, and comes face to face with the full realities of war in the air, he finds to his surprise that he not only has the skills to survive, but to find victory and success as a combat leader. More than fifty years after the Second World War came to a close, he finally decided to begin committing to paper his experiences as a fighter ace.
