Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Book Preview:
#1 I was excited to be leading the 479th Fighter Group on D-day. We had been taking the war to Hitler, and it felt good. I had two kills, and I wanted more. I was scanning the horizon for contrails or telltale dots that didn’t belong there. It was quiet.
#2 The single-engine pilot doesn’t know about the pulse, but in the Lightning, you live with it all of the time. The engines have a rhythm that signals the minor differences in props and rpm, and when it is constant and steady, you feel relaxed. When it is loud or too fast or too slow, it jangles the nerves.
