I am currently reading the 1962 book "The Big E" about the USS Enterprise aircraft carrier CV-6. Incredible accounts of the battles the E participated in and very well written. Available through Amazon. (I'm reading my dad's 1962 hardbound second edition.)

I love seeing these postings and am always amazed at how many of us are here are into this stuff!.

A month or so ago I finished this book on the RCAF Bomber 6-Group called 'Reap the Whirlwind'...it was great!.

Next to read is 'Behind enemy lines'...the story of Jim Moffat of the RCAF 427 Squadron..
Jim is alive today and I'm hoping to get in on one of his informal meetings he gives where he talks of his experiences..

We are the fortunate generation and owe so much to all these Vets!!!
