excellent detail, a valuable documentary Jul 07, 2011
By T. Landis
Excellent detail, an inspiring tale of seeing life at it's best and worst. I could not put the book down, and appreciate the author's courage and effort in being willing to put his first-hand accounts into print. I had an uncle who was in Pearl Harbor during the attack, and he would never talk about the experience, and I hear that this is common for WWII veterans. The author adds enough detail to give a glimpse of what he must have felt witnessing at close range other planes being shot down and fellow airmen killed, yet manages to focus on the friendships and positive aspects of his experiences. Truly an inspirational tale of facing and accepting the challenge of an unsought and unwanted adventure.

GREATEST GENERATION Oct 11, 2007
By Michael N. Ennis
THIS BOOK IS A GREAT READ. NOT TO IN DETAIL BUT COVERS ALL SUBJECTS MORE THEN ADEQUATELY. SHOULD GIVE ANYONE WHO HAD A FAMILY MEMBER SERVING IN THE ARMY AIR FORCE DURING WORLD WAR 2 SOME IDEA OF WHAT THEY WENT THROUGH SINCE ALOT OF THESE VETERANS DONOT LIKE TO TALK OF THEIR EXPERIENCES.

"A truly wonderful book!" Jan 15, 2007
By Dr. Paul Sebastion
What a great read this book was! As a personal account of one man's journey from the streets of Brooklyn as a teenager; then suddenly thrust into military service during World War II - it is a heartwarming and inspirational story. As a firsthand account penned by an unsung American hero of "the war to end all wars" which traces the author's experiences and observations from boot camp; to seasoned Air Force veteran; to escape from behind enemy lines; to return to civilian life - it is an invaluable piece of American history which further confirms the fact that Frank Condreras' generation was truly "the greatest generation!"
