Summary:
This book details the colourful experiences of the elite pilots of
the AAF's Tenth and Fourteenth Air Forces in the 'forgotten'
China-Burma-India theatre during WW2. Inheriting the legacy of the
American Volunteer Group (AVG), units such as the 23rd FG 'held the
line' against overwhelming Japanese forces until the arrival of the
first P-38s and P-51s in 1944. The Warhawk became synonymous with the
efforts of the AAF in the CBI, being used by some 40 aces to claim
five or more kills between 1942-45. This volume is the first of four
covering the exploits with the P-40 during World War 2.
