Have you ever wondered...
What it would be like to fly in a bombing raid involving more
than l,000 aircraft?
If you would risk your own life to save the life of a horse
following enemy attacks?
What it felt like to parachute to the ground from more than
10,000 feet in the air?
What some of the most unusual cargo transported by sailors
in the Merchant Navy might be?

testimonies from veterans themselves, given directly to the author, as well as the letters and diaries belonging to family members who are determined not to let their loved one's stories be forgotten.
