Hi. There are two that I hope I get the names correct. One is named "Citizen Soldier", by Stepen Ambrose.. I think he wrote several books so you have to make sure you get the WW2 book. In it is a series of stories about average Joe's getting called up and just doing their duty. I remember one was about being in a bomber and how he just decided not to worry and let God handle things. Another book was called "A higher call" and is about a B17 that was damaged and is "escorted" back to safety by a LW pilot. Finally, Tom Brokaw's "The greatest generation" I believe has a few stories in it regarding bomber pilots, but maybe not all B17. I'm sure that there are more out there. I remember reading a few books about World War 2 in general (large text books lol) and you would always find a section on bombers and fighters and the missions. Too many of these to count.

Hey I just saw your review for the mighty 8th redux. It's a really good review. In it you said something about reading a book about a typical B17 mission and I just wanted to ask if you had any books in mind?

Vlad you mentioned looking for a PC alternative to the old Avalon Hill games. I too was looking and found it in the Wargames Studio (WDS) PC Boardwargames. Take a look if you've not seen. Steam doesn't like Links I think, so do a search. You can play them as slow and/or as big as you want, against PC or PBEM. For example the full Waterloo campaign is 388 moves! They're pricey, but are extremely well researched, have the occasional sale and have excellent customer relations. (I have a number of them now including North Africa41 which covers many of my daddy's battles.) [Posted here in case you miss it in the comments under game speed of SGS]

That's about all I remember. Try those things first. If you're still stuck, I don't know if I can help. Re-read the entire post, because I do a poor job (I tend to ramble and comment too much) but this has worked for most.

Good luck!!
