The Reluctant Raiders: The Story of United States Navy Bombing Squadron VB/VPB-109 in World War II hardcover +NSI+
The Reluctant Raiders is perhaps the most documented and researched book on a United States Navy land-based squadron flying the PB4Y-1 Liberator and PB4Y-2 Privateer. The final result of five years of research, the book traces the squadron's history from its commissioning in August 1943, to the final days of World War II, including: never before published combat and nose art photography; the squadron's tactical organization; a chronology of each combat aircrew's mission record; personnel killed in action; and an appendix containing Japanese shipping and aircraft destroyed or damaged by the squadron
Published 1999, 240 pages, 90 black & white photographs, hardcover, 6" x 9" inches
