This narrative about the author's grandfather Daniel LaHurd's personal experiences during World War II is unique in that it recounts 'A Story of One' individual. This riveting memoir offers much insight into the extensive training process that transforms a raw recruit into a highly professional member of a wartime B-17 bomber crew of the 483rd Bomb Group. Shot down on the Memmingen raid, 18 July 1944, he became a POW, and the author provides a superb account of prison camp life. 25 photos.
