Description
The B-17 Tomahawk Warrior: A WWII Final Honor In 1944, a US B-17 bomber crashed in Southern England, claiming the lives of its crew. For decades, the incident remained shrouded in mystery until author David E. Huntley stumbled upon the story as an adult. The coincidence was striking - the plane's crash occurred on the same day as another notable aircraft accident involving Lt. Joseph P. Kennedy Jr. Huntley's investigation into the 'Tomahawk Warriors' case led him to uncover a complex web of events and unanswered questions. He discovered a navigator's diary, which had gone unnoticed for years, and pieced together the circumstances surrounding the crash. Through meticulous research and analysis of declassified records, Huntley shed new light on this little-known aspect of WWII history. This book tells the story of the 'Tomahawk Warriors' and their tragic fate, revealing a fascinating chapter in the history of American aviation during World War II.
