Bill Cannon, Piloting More than His Own Aircraft","description":"\u003cp\u003eAs World War II winds down, a cocky young Army Airforce pilot confronts the messy cleanup of a war-ravaged world. As loneliness, frustration, fear, and a strong call to duty begin to shape him, Buster also known as Bill would become known as the Football Flyboy--is humbled by the devastation and struggles he sees around him. \u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Writing letters home to his family back in Oklahoma, Buster shares his daily experiences with refreshing candor, raw emotion and even humor: \u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e \"Well, I still can't figure it out if Japan surrendered because of the Atom bomb or because Russia entered into the war, but I can't help but believe it was because they heard that I was on my way over.\" \u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Buster desperately misses his young bride Mary, his parents and his four, strong-willed sisters. With each letter home, we watch him grow and mature amid the horrifying cultural forces that shaped The Greatest Generation. \u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Enriched by commentary from Buster's only daughter, author Lisa Reinicke, Football Flyboy revisits the life of boy who became a patriot in the service of others. Written as Lisa helped her family prepare for her father's death at the age of 72, Lisa has created the perfect book for those looking for a different kind of World War II read--one that explores the power of love and family in a world turned upside down.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Lisa Reinicke\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0999363743\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780999363744\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Our House Publications, LLC\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 06\/25\/2018\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 228\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.65lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.50h x 5.50w x 0.52d","brand":"Lisa Reinicke","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48441676693759,"sku":"9780999363744","price":18.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_db31975d-75d9-447e-973f-b63a0e840366.jpg?v=1777192229","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/football-flyboy-lisa-reinicke-9780999363744","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
