For the Kiwi's among us.
'Too Young To Die' by Bryan Cox. ISBN 0 09 172741 3 (Paper) 0 09 172740 5 (Cased)
The story of a New Zealand fighter pilot in the Pacific War. A very good insight into the not insignificant contribution made by NZ operated Corsairs. A contribution little known outside of their homeland. I was particularly interested to read it due to a WW2 AIF friend of the family who was involved in fighting Japanese forces with NZ Corsairs carrying out ground attack from overhead. One of his clear memories was being showered with empty .50 Cal cases and how much they hurt. Something you don't tend to think about. David
