About P-38 LIGHTNING Unforgettable Missions Of Skill And
Product Description The P-38 National Association wants to put YOU in the cockpit of the greatest combat airplane of World War II with remembrances of the P-38 Lightning as told by the people who were there. Compiled from the archives of the P-38 National Association membership publication, "Lightning Strikes," this book contains some of the most dramatic, heart-wrenching and humorous stories as told by the combat pilots, ground crews and other personnel who had hands-on experiences with the P-38 Lightning. Included in the book are numerous historical photos of the personnel and the plane along with tales of bravery and humor which took place before, during and after the war. The book also includes stories about the design, development and production of the P-38. Compiled and edited by noted aviation author, historian and "Lightning Strikes" editor Steve Blake and author and historian Dayle DeBry. Introduction by P-38 National Association President Bob Alvis. About the Author The P-38 National Association is a non-profit veterans organization, established in 1987 to preserve the memory of the greatest combat airplane of WWII, the Lockheed P-38 Lightning. We have well over 1900 records of persons with hands-on experience with this state-of-the-art aircraft, and our membership continues to grow as more and more fans find out about us. Members include pilots, maintenance personnel, crew chiefs, armorers, cooks, and administrators of any military organization flying or supporting this great aircraft. This also encompasses WASP personnel technical representatives and manufacturing personnel of companies who supported the military or supplied the factories producing and maintaining the P‑38. Our membership also includes fans who had relatives involved with the manufacture or use of the planes as well as those who are enthusiasts of the P‑38 (or WWII aviation history). These fans have become an important part in carrying on the legacy begun over 80 years ago.
