    Here are some remarks from two readers who purchased copies of this book:

    "I wanted to let you know that I've just finished reading your father's story - it was one outstanding book!  I wish that more ebayers would purchase the book if they knew how truly great a read it is."

    and: 

    “Just finished your Dad’s book and loved it.  The straight-forward approach made the story easy to read.  I liked the details in portions of it, particularly some of the details of the shortcomings of the B-24 and comparisons with the B-17.  While I have read other books with similar details, your Dad’s version is the best I have encountered so far.  Since my Dad was trained on and flew B-17s, that has largely been my main focus.  While the training was the same, your father’s book made it very clear to me that there were major differences when flying on operational missions.  “Sporty Course” is a wonderful book that covers all aspects of becoming a bomber pilot, and then it takes you to war.  
    A great book that deserves to be in the library of everyone interested in the 8th AF.  You should be very proud of your Dad’s Air Force career and particularly his time in combat.”
