It is with great sadness that I have to report the death of my colleague Larry Hickey who passed away on Saturday, August 14th at his home in Boulder, Colorado. He was an aviation historian and publisher who is familiar to many on this forum. His first publication was the landmark 1984 book,
Warpath Across the Pacific: The Illustrated History of the 345th Bombardment Group.
Pacific Wrecks has a long interview with him from 2004 which I highly recommend.
