Description

Until now, Army Air Force Bases in Nebraska all the way through World War II had never before been presented in a single book (among the photographed structures are no longer visible). These stories and photographs most commonly focal point on The united states’s Greatest Generation, which fought and won World War II. Also included are information on and images of the Martin B-26/Martin-Boeing B-29 Superfortress production plant at Fort Crook. One section deals with the building of modified B-29s for the 509th Composite Group, referred to after the war as the “Atomic Bomb Group,” which dropped the 2 atomic bombs on Japan, ending World War II. Also know about German and Italian Prisoner of War camps, where POWs contributed to agricultural production in Nebraska, helping feed American troops, Allied troops, and civilian populations all over the world. Most Americans don’t seem to be conscious about the huge numbers of Axis POWs held in The united states all the way through the war.
