Hi David

Good read, read it a couple of months ago, actually found it at my local library here in the States. Unusual in that it actually tells the story of other than the US Navy having a role in the War in the Pacific, very pleased that our library for adding it to their collection.

Lots of interesting little tidbits, like the training of Commonwealth pilots in the US and the advantage they got from better weather meaning more flying hours.

Cheers Phil

Purely fiction, but I have read 3 of W.E.B. Griffin's series and really enjoyed them. 'The Corps' and 'Brotherhood of War' were set across WWII, and 'The Presidential Agent' series was good as well, but set in more recent times.
