Ploesti:
The Great Ground-air Battle of 1 August, 1943
by James Dugan & Carroll Stewart
With more photos and a foreword by aviation historian Von Hardesty
Book Description:
On August 1, 1943, an enormous armada of America B-24 Liberator bombers roared at nearly treetop level across the peaceful farms and villages of Romania. This mission was Operation Tidal Wave. Its target - "the taproot of German might," Hitler's giant oil refineries at Ploesti. Hundreds of U.S. airmen volunteered for the mission despite warnings that half might not return. In thirty minutes, more firepower was exchanged than in two Gettysburgs, and five men earned the Medal of Honor. This revised edition includes a new foreword and additional photographs from co-author Carroll Stewart's collection. Ploesti presents a vivid reconstruction of a dramatic and controversial mission.
"Adolf Hitler had based much of his strategy in the Balkans and the Eastern Front on protecting the vulnerable Rumanian oil refineries at Ploesti from air attack. On August 1, 1943 his worst nightmare came true! His defenses would extract a dreadful toll on the attackers" - Michael Kelly, PzG Inc. President
