I got an e-mail from a gentleman who is a WWII Air Corps and infantry vet. He has some very interesting stories. He has one book out and is working on a second. His website has some samples of the writings that will be part of the second book and is well worth the read.

How We Won The War!

Some interesting reads in the stories section. I liked the one about the Tommy and the hotel.

Gee.... and I thought John Wayne won the war ! He did everything from the
Flying Tigers to Iwo Jima, with some time in the Navy, too.

Yeah, the Tommy and the hotel was pretty funny. I read through all of them and thought you guys would enjoy them as much as I did.

Here were many books, articles, comments and documentary TV programs like a "How We Lost The War" and some are still sticky.
Starting the war was wrong.
