The 357th Fighter Group produced 42 aces, more than any other group within the USAAF. It was also the first group in the Eighth Air Force to be equipped with the P-51.

great review Fred - certainly makes you want to go out and get it. Only problem is I've already got at least four volumes on my shelves devoted to the 357th FG !
