Author's Synopsis
From the building of the Ledo Road into China, to the battlefields of Guadalcanal, New Guinea, the Philippines and the air and ground war on continental Europe, the author's father and uncles relate their World War II timelines and experiences.
Through interviews and correspondence with each of these six men before their passings, the pattern of young men being transitioned from the Depression into a war time footing is not only a precious family history, but a chronology that reflects on all those who served in those years. In total, these young men were spread out across six of the earth's seven continents. Included is a recently discovered hand written journal of one of the men's bombing missions over eastern Europe.
Praise God that they each came home to create the extended family that the author has been privileged to be part of.
