Fightin' Air Force #9

1957-11-01 · 37 pages

An Air Force pilot named Rescue discovers a downed pilot in enemy territory and arranges his extraction via helicopter. At a coffee mill used as a hideout, Rescue and his contact prepare to extract captured pilots, but they are betrayed—the contact reveals himself as enemy and attempts to prevent their escape. A flashback reveals that Lt. Col. Doolittle trained his flight crews extensively and handpicked sixteen crews for a secret mission, with pilot Doolittle demonstrating exceptional skill in handling a heavily laden carrier-based plane. The main narrative follows Frank Nugents and his crew as they fly a dangerous bombing run across Germany, threading through flak corridors and facing enemy fighters while completing their final mission, with Nugents ultimately receiving commendation for his navigational skill during the operation.
