One Mission excerpt: Mission #4 "April 29 - Well today was the big day and I hope I never see another one like it. Our mission was Berlin. I saw B 24's spinning out of the air and I knew men couldn't get out. Fighters attacked us for the first time and put three holes under my seat. I was really praying on this mission, it was the first time I was really scared and didn't think that I would get back. If it wasn't for Ginny and the folks, I would quit this flying." — Warren W.
