Us Marine Corps Fighter Squadrons Of World War Ii

The US Marine Corps has a long and proud heritage of aviation excellence, celebrating its Centenary in 2012. While `flying leathernecks` made their mark in both world wars, Korea, Vietnam and more recently throughout the global war on terrorism, it was during World War II that they captured the hearts and minds of the public with their daring exploits. This is the first book to detail the legendary actions of famous fighter aces such as Medal of Honor winner John L Smith, Greg `Pappy`Boyinton, Marion Carl, Joe Foss, and many more.
