You have made us "proud"!!!Jerry Hahn, Minnesota Air National Guard"I found your book to be fascinating. It struck home at several levels. The account of the TADP brought back memories as did the B-25 and Red Tails (Tuskegee Airmen). I worked in the last B-25 Squad at James Connelly AFB before I left for Korea. I also did a story on the Confederate Air Force."William Aylward, Acting Director,502 Tactical Control Group Veterans Association,HF Radio Op in my DetachmentWhat a book! I'm ... proud to be your friend!"Philippe Mayan, composer and CAF enthusiastDraguignan, France
