✔️Flyboys by James Bradley

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

“The airmen were considered the most important passengers on the carriers.”

This is a nonfiction book that tells the story of 9 young men who were sent to bomb Japanese communications towers.  It gives the reader a look into the mindset of the Japanese during this time and how the their prisoners of war were treated.  I haven’t found many WWII books that focus on Japan, so I found this to be really interesting.

I thought the German Nazis were bad during WWII, but the actions of the Japanese were despicable.  

Each of the flyboys were heroes.  I will forever be grateful for our military and our veterans.
