B-24 Liberator Units of the Fifteenth Air Force, Paperback / softback Book

B-24 Liberator Units of the Fifteenth Air Force Paperback / softback

Illustrated by Mark Styling, Mark Rolfe, Iain Wyllie

Part of the Osprey Combat Aircraft series

Paperback / softback

Description

The B-24 was heavily utilised in the North African and Mediterranean theatres by the USAAF's Fifteenth Air Force, with operations over the Ploesti oilfields in Rumania being some of the most famous missions undertaken by the big American 'heavy' in World War II (1939-1945).

The stirling work of the Fifteenth Air Force is often overshadowed by the glamorous 'Mighty Eighth', yet the men flying the B-24 fought ceaselessly right through to VE Day.

This is the third of five titles planned to chart the operational history of the Consolidated heavy bomber, and is the first single volume to exclusively cover the Fifteenth Air Force's B-24 units.
