Written by Paul Tibbetts, as Colonel in command of the 509th Composite Group, he oversaw the total preparations and delivery of both atomic bombs used in World War II, piloting the lead mission plane 'Enola Gay' himself, that pushed the Japanese to finally surrender and end the vast global conflict. Tibbetts served in all theaters of World War II and eventual achieved Brigadier General rank in the USAF. His clarity of thought, command experiences, organizational aviation talent and first-hand involvement with delivery of the most powerful weapons devised by mankind, make this a unique and unparalleled military read. Should be required 'academy' reading.
