Angels Zero
P-47 Close Air Support in Europe Brulle. 

Close air support of infantry and tanks was  key to Allied success in WWII. Flying rugged P-47 Thunderbolts nearly at ground level  - or "Angels Zero" - over northwestern Europe, the pilots of the 9th Air Force strafed  and dive-bombed bridges, rail yards, supply depots, troops and tanks. This was the  most dangerous of air operations, exacting heavy casualties. Here is a recounting of  support missions with the 366th Fighter Group, linking daily experiences in the cockpit  with events in the wider European theater. A wonderful combination of both personal and historical detail vividly recreates this lesser-known aspect of the air war in  Europe. 208 pgs., 24 B&W photos, 6"x 9", hdbd.

P-47 Pilots : The Fighter-Bomber Boys
Tom Glenn Paperback
Published 1998 

P-47 Pilots The Fighter Bomber Boys, August 2, 2000   Reviewer: Susan A. England from Maitland, FL United States  Tom Glenn tells an exceptional story exceptionally well. Glenn brings you into his cockpit  and his muddy tent. There you can inhale the horrifying, glorifying experiences of these  air warriors. In their Thunderbolts, the fighter bomber pilots soar beyond incredible and  dive to the brink of impossible. The book is insightful, riveting and an eye-opener. If you  only have room for one book in your current time/money budget--pick this one. Sadly,  the missions, the contributions, the victories (& the staggering casualty rate) of the fighter bomber pilot is barely mentioned or omitted entirely from most WWII chronicles. Myb  thanks to Tom Glenn for not letting this bit of history disappear and to he and his fellow  pilots who risked all for us.
