Summary

Like many Americans, as soon as Vincent J. Riccio heard about the attack on Pearl Harbor, he wanted to enlist in the military. This memoir recounts his experiences in the United States Army Air Corps as an instrument technician, aviation cadet, and flight engineer in World War II. It describes his escapades during training and deployment, the missions flown over Germany, the fateful events that led to his captivity in Stalag Luft IV, and the long road home. It reflects his impressions of military service, the people he met, and the lessons he learned along the way.

Wonderful

This is an invaluable account of an airman's experiences of the second world war from enlistment to discharge. It is a piece of history from a dying breed of men and women. I really liked Vincent, a resourceful young man with a strength and attitude you could not fail to respect. I would have liked a bit more detail of his service but only because it was so fascinating. I highly recommend this piece of history. The narration is excellent, well performed and easy to listen too despite some of the subject matter. I received a complimentary copy from the author and am leaving a honest voluntary review
