Re: Larry Hickey books
Due to various production problems the book is somewhat delayed, but is now due back from the printer in about eight weeks. I will post specifics soon, and will keep this board aprised of the exact shipping date for copies once this is exactly known. The book is huge, in excess of 600 pages. Among other things it provides details of all 354 B-26s, B-25s and B-24s that served with the 22nd, their crews, nicknames and fates. Photos of most of them are included, but the aircraft info is only a tiny part of the book. The book includes a full and complete history of the unit and all of its combat missions as well. All aircraft losses have been matched with sepecific info on the Japanese side for the shoot downs, includings units and names of pilots responsible. Nothing like this has ever been done before for a specific unit for the entire war.
