Bullets zipped over Stan, while at his
back he felt the hot breath of his
burning plane.
Captain Stan Wilson, and his hard-flying companions, March Allison and Bill
O'Malley, had fought in every theatre of war. Everyone in the Army Air Forces had heard about their audacious exploits and savage
air battles––their indomitable fighting spirit and spectacular flying skill. So it was only logical when special equipment had to be flown
to the French underground a few hours before D-Day that these three veterans of the sky were detailed on the hazardous mission.
A story of incredible gallantry and daredevil flying, A Yankee Flier in
Normandy is an exciting account of the vital roles this renowned three-man fighting team played in the invasion of Normandy.
