Into the Wild Black and Blue Yonder (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798244687347)

Terrors unimagined, in places beyond the battlefield, where survival comes down to strength, faith, courage, and a lucky throw against the devil himself. Follow Casimir "Cash" Kalinowski, a young man drafted off the streets of Chicago into the US Army during the Second World War. Thrust into the wild black and blue yonder, Cash flies twenty-eight missions with the 385th Bomb Group, where success is measured in destruction versus survival, where boredom turns to mania in an instant, and where friends vanish into fire and flak without warning. But combat is only the beginning. After a crash landing in neutral Switzerland, Cash must endure internment and the gnawing silence of captivity, ingenuity and sheer will drive him to plan a daring escape across hostile borders, his odds no better than a crapshoot against fate. Through camaraderie, faith, and the stubborn endurance of youth, Cash pushes forward-seeking not just to survive, but to return home.
