Re: 4th FG book
I would recommend Ethell/Fry Escort to Berlin as number one on your list...
"1000 Destroyed" by Hall is decent but many more factual errors - for example, Hall claims that the Green pick up of Pierce Mckinnon on 18 March 1945 was first Mustang "Piggyback Recue'. In fact Royce Priest rescued my father Bert Marshall, Jr on 18 August 1944 NE of Paris - exactly 6 months before. 354FS/355FG - both P-51D's.
As an aside Jeff steered me to a similar Combat Diary format for my own book "Angels, Bulldogs and Dragons - History of 355th FG in Word War II"
