BDCHS Advanced Reading discussion

So, right off the bat I personally liked this book (An Ace of the Eighth by Norman "Bud" Fortier) because it is World War II and I love anything WWII. However, for most other people it may be kind of dull and not very exciting or griping. Should you read this? At least give it a try, it is about an United States Army Air Force (USAAF) pilot during the latter part of WWII. It is kind of an autobiography of his time in the war in Europe. He is stationed at an air base in Europe not too far from London and Germany. He recalls his missions and some of the shenanigans that he and his fellow pilots of the 354th squadron, part of VIII fighter command, do when the weather causes them to be grounded or forces command to scrub a mission. Overall, I enjoyed this book and the details he gives about the airplanes he flew like the P-40 "Kittyhawk", P-39 Airacobra, P-47 "Thunderbolt" (or "jug"), and the P-51b "Mustang".

Overall, it was a pretty good book (In my opinion) and I think it deserves a good 3 out of 5 because it may not be very appealing to most people, but for those who enjoy WWII nonfiction books like this would enjoy it.
