In the bright sunlight at 20,000 feet, the B-17 of the American 351st Bomb Group had nowhere to hide from the German fighters. Explosive shells smashed into a plane named Ten Horsepower. The Copilot was killed, the pilot knocked unconscious. The crippled bomber wavered, then fell away in a steep, spiraling dive. No one expected to see the crew again, but their story was not over. Through eyewintess accounts, combat reports and personal interviews, we get to know ten young men who found themselves in a struggle for survival that tested their courage, faith and commitment to each other. With over 100 photos, charts and maps, Valor at Polebook tells a story that words alone cannot fully decribe.
