| Shot At and Missed: Recollections of a World War II Bombardier by University of Oklahoma Press Reasonable |
| A reasonable storeyline to this book but little 'wow' factor. Not great but not bad! |
| Shot At and Missed: Recollections of a World War II Bombardier by University of Oklahoma Press Different Slant |
| Jack Myers a bombadier/navigator with the 15th Air Force in Italy provides the reader with a unique take on the trials of an airman in WWII. His emphasis is on characterization of the many men he flew with in combat. Very different and very engrossing, including long passages on his copilot a man nicknamed the "War Lover." |
| Shot At and Missed: Recollections of a World War II Bombardier by University of Oklahoma Press Excellent recollections |
| This book provides an excellent recollection of certain events, some in graphic detail. He provides a mature insight into his young maturity going into the war. |

A great book ! My father was a toggelier on a B-17 and I found
the book to be accurate, factual, informative and exciting. The
bombardier on a B-17 sat in the very nose of the aircraft and was
only 24 inches from being the most forward part of the plane. Not
even the pilot or copilot had a more frightening view of the flak
than the bombardier. First hand accounts of these historic events are
beoming fewer and fewer, this is a great one.
