This is a solid review. Thank you. You really need to make it to the National Museum of the USAF at Wright-Patterson in Dayton, Ohio. It is an order of magnitude (or two) larger and the museum docents are great.

Been there done that!!! Awesome museum! They have a bomber simulator so big you stand in it. Screens all around, awesome sound with deep bass, you feel like your in a B-17 under fighter and flak attack.

Spend a weekend in Savannah and hit the museum as you leave for a few hours. Had a blast!

A good book on the formation of the 8th Air Force, early strategic bombing and development of bombing formations/tactics in England is a bio on Curtis LeMay called Iron Eagle by Thomas Coffee.

Size of uniforms: Didn't the USAAF purposefully recruit smaller fellows to better fit into aircraft? I think I heard that somewhere.

Until they relearned close-range air-to-air fighting skills again by starting the Top Gun school the MiG-17s were routinely outgunning the much bigger F-4s over Vietnam.

A personal note: My grandfather never served in the armed forces in WWII. He was kept home as essential to the war effort. He trained those women whose filled the factory he worked at making brass firefighting equipment for Navy warships.
