“The letters bring back the World War II years as seen by an 18 year old who has enlisted in the Air Force and is engaged in pilot training. It reminds us of the fragility of our plans for the future only to be derailed by death. A fate all too familiar to those who experienced those war time years. The book is a lesson in the futility of war and how ones culture at any given time is such a powerful influence on most of our lives.” Dr. Hilton Anderson
