War in the air- from the great depression to combat: the things our fathers saw, vol. 2 - matthew a. rozell

Volume 2 in THE LONG-AWAITED SEQUEL IN THE BEST SELLING The Things Our Fathers Saw SERIES At the height of World War II, LOOK Magazine profiled a small upstate New York community for a series of articles portraying it as the wholesome, patriotic model of life on the home front.

Seventy years later, a history teacher tracks down the veterans with a connection to Hometown, USA who fought the war in the air over Europe, men who were tempered in the tough times of the Great Depression and forged in battle.

He rescues and resurrects firsthand accounts of combat and brotherhood, of captivity and redemption, and the aftermath of a war that left no American community unscathed.

Here are the stories that the magazine could not tell, from a vanishing generation speaking to America today.
