Not that I am familiar with, Wildcat, but if you google "RCAF In Aleutians 1942" you get what's there

There is a book that was for sale in the local CO-OP. Not sure if it's good or not. I'll look around and see if i can find it.

This is the book I was referring to...

Nice shots there guys!!!

Off hand Andy I personally don't know of any good books on the RCAF In Aleutians. Never really did much research into that area either other than see photos off and on of planes there.

I have been trying to go through my different hard drives and place pictures in the correct folders for easy access. Ran across a few more P-40's so far I have saved from the web.
