"Rarely do we read true stories about the fearsome, persevering. enduring, unselfish love of country displayed by Dr. George Starks. He doesn't like to be called a hero, but no other word can rightly portray him better. He is my hero and after reading this book, he will be yours too."
—BRENDA ELMGREN, former chief administrative officer of the National Museum of the Mighty Eighth Air Force
"..readers will catch a glimpse into first-hand accounts of what very young men did in serving our country at a time when the world was at war—and how brave people abroad responded to their mission.
You will be inspired and engrossed at every turn of the page of this remarkable book."
-BILL FREDERICK, former Mayor of Orlando
