In the thirteen stories told by the participants, many of whom were decorated for bravery, they describe their experiences of events: stories of luck, tenacity, courage, extreme danger, excitement and bravery. Also included are photographs to help set the scene for the vignettes and details of the authors' lives where possible. Seven stories detail the war at sea, while the other six reflect the war in the air from a civilian and combatant point of view." --Publisher's description.WarWarfare, PrehistoricWar.Warfare, Prehistoric.355.02Bilton DavidMiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910154885603321Sea and air fighting2886575UNINA
