Letters to Don

Like millions of his peers Clint leaves farm family budding career and flies into World War II a new pilot in a new arm of the Army Air Corps known as TROOP CARRIER COMMAND. Over a nineteen month span Clint's letters to his oldest brother chronicle elements of training deployment combat hi-Jinks and outlandish experiences all while doing his part to bring down the Nazi war machine. Limited by censorship and operational tempo LETTERS TO DON follows Clint's path annotated by the larger saga of events and places swirling around the tale as he shared it with his big brother. Hidden in his words are anecdotes of deployed life the stuff of war a romance and the experiences that forged soldiers like him and those who soldiered on the home front into the Greatest Generation.
