The B-25 Mitchell was the most successful and most prolific USAAF bomber of World War II. This book features first-hand accounts from them men who flew the machine that represented the backbone of the USAAF's medium bombing force in the Mediterranean Theatre of Operations.
During the course of World War II, throughout the Mediterranean Theatre of Operations (which encompassed some7500 square miles of enemy air space), five USAAF medium-class bomb groups and their 20 bomb squadrons used their allotments of B-25 Mitchell aircraft to perfection. From low-altitude strafing to high-altitude bombing runs, the B-25s in the MTO proved themselves to be a most successful brood of combat aircraft. This volume includes first-hand accounts.
