Aces of the 78th Fighter Group
«Overall this is a highly worthy effort on the part of Tom Cleaver, a book which is long overdue and will no doubt be an excellent addition to one's library. Highly Recommended. - www.hyperscale.com»
Dubbed the ‘Eagles of Duxford’, the 78th Fighter Group (FG) was unique in being the only fighter unit in the ‘Mighty Eighth’ to fly the P-38 Lightning, P-47 Thunderbolt and P-51 Mustang operationally. Arriving in the European Theatre of Operations (ETO) in November 1942, and eventually committed to combat five months later, the 78th, along with the 4th and 56th FGs, ‘wrote the book’ on long-range fighter escort by VIII Fighter Command in the ETO.
