Cloe, John Haile
Very detailed work of the Alaskan military historian, covering the history of air operations in the area up until reoccupation of Attu and Kiska | Ralph WetterhahnThis book was the first one, that really sparked my curiosity on USN and USAAF operations against then-Japanese Kurile Islands. Back then, the author won my instant favor for the fact, that he traveled to Kamchatka and Shimushu twice. Later he generously helped me with some of my multiple questions. Thank you, Ralph! |
